Vance County Schools are closed for students Monday, and staff will have an optional workday beginning at 10 a.m.
The area is under a winter weather advisory and the forecast is calling for below-freezing conditions and frozen precipitation, so school officials made the call to close school for students. Essential personnel will report to their locations at 9:30 a.m.
