DICKSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WTVF) — Dickson County Schools will open two hours late Friday following severe weather that brought down trees and caused power outages across the area.
The district announced the delay for April 17, 2026, citing ongoing impacts from the storms and safety concerns for students and staff.
“All TCAP/EOC testing for Friday, April 17, 2026 will be postponed until Monday, April 20, 2026,” the district said in a message to parents and guardians.
Officials said they will continue monitoring conditions through the evening as crews work to clear debris and restore power.
Young or old, we all love to play board and card games! Those games become even more important when you are indoors and don't have the ability to get outside, like patients in a hospital. Austin Pollack shares the story of students in a Nashville family who have helped re-launch the Red Wagon project to collect games for patients at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.
