School was cancelled Jan. 6-8, 2025, due to the weather. Community members helped document the ice storm and blizzard that hit Fort Leavenworth and surrounding areas Jan. 4-5, 2025. The extreme winter weather cancelled church, school and other events and required teleworking for much of the fort’s workforce due to dangerous road conditions and continued frigid temperatures.
