As Hurricane Helene approaches, significant school closures and schedule changes have been announced across several states including Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, Virginia, and the Carolinas. JCPS in Louisville will close on Friday, September 27, while numerous districts in Central Virginia and the Triangle area in North Carolina are also shutting down or switching to remote learning. In Georgia, schools are closed due to anticipated severe weather, and Alabama schools have adjusted schedules due to the storm's impact. Many campuses in Florida report students sheltering on-site. Businesses and event organizers are making similar preparations, contributing to a widespread disruption caused by the hurricane's expected landfall.
