Winter storm: Fulton County Schools closed Tuesday

By
Feb 16, 2015

Add Fulton County Schools to the list of closures due to the winter weather sweeping through North Georgia and some parts of metro Atlanta.

Schools are closed Tuesday for students and teachers, spokeswoman Samantha Evans said.

Before the official announcement, someone hoping for a snow day may have hacked the school system's Twitter account.

“We did notice messages on our Fulton County school Twitter account and that they were not generated by the school," Evans told Channel 2 Action News. "We are looking into that.”
