Iron County schools cancel class due to snowy road conditions

SALT LAKE CITY — The Iron County School District announced classes at all schools would be canceled Friday due to weather conditions. The district said after an accumulation of overnight snow, the road conditions were hazardous. "A delayed start was considered, but with the shorter Friday schedule, the district is taking a more cautious approach to keep families safe," the district said. It noted that no after-school programs would occur either, but some high school athletics could still be held. The district advised families to check with coaches. According to KSL meteorologists, forecasts showed a high-pressure system would move into the state later on Friday and bring statewide sunshine through the weekend.
