On Monday, September 29, 2025, the New Kensington-Arnold School District will be implementing a 2-hour delay for students. This decision has been made to accommodate essential professional development activities for our dedicated faculty members.

During this time, our teachers will engage in important training sessions aimed at enhancing their skills and knowledge, ultimately benefiting the educational experience of our students. We appreciate your understanding and support in allowing our faculty the opportunity to continue their professional growth.

Please ensure that students arrive at their bus stops or schools exactly two hours later than their usual times.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
