Calendar Change

Hay Springs Public School will be changing to an early release on Thursday, February 12th, 2026.

Due to superintendent interviews and multiple home basketball games in the afternoon, staffing is very thin that afternoon. School will be released at 12:00 p.m. Elementary will be served a normal lunch and 6-12th grades will have a grab and go lunch option. There will be no p.m. preschool that day.

Bus routes will run normally in the am, and after dismissal at 12:00 p.m.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
