ROUND ROCK, TX — Round Rock ISD schools and offices will operate on two-hour delay Tuesday morning as a result of inclement weather conditions, officials said late Monday. An Arctic cold front that blasted through the region around noon is predicted to result in a plunge of temperatures just below the freezing mark with potential sleet and frozen rain threatening to create hazardous road conditions. As a result, school district officials were prompted to implement a two-hour delay. This means school district offices and schools will operate on a two-hour delay on Tuesday. Buses designated pick-up points also will operate two hours later than on regular school days, officials said. School start times will begin two hours later and be dismissed at regular time.
