Hoover schools to have two-hour delayed start Tuesday due to Tropical Storm Irma

Hoover schools will open two hours later than normal to students on Tuesday due to Tropical Storm Irma, according to a notice on the school system’s website.

Accordingly, all Hoover school buses will operate on a two-hour morning delay. A child who normally expects to be picked up at 6:30 a.m. can expect to be picked up at 8:30 a.m., school officials said.

However, all school employees should report to work on their normal schedule.

Shelby County schools already had announced they would be closed both Monday and Tuesday due to Irma.
