Inclement Weather Procedures/School Closings

Mother Nature does not always follow the school calendar.  As a reminder, please review our annual inclement weather procedures to familiarize yourself with the types of changes that may occur during an inclement weather event.

Please remember that all school districts make the best decision based on the information available at that time and many variables are considered when determining the status of the school day.  Decisions consider the preparedness of our schools and conditions of our roads, are rarely clear-cut, and often must be made with inconsistent weather reports that are changing up until the morning of a school day. 

For Delayed Openings, we will strive to notify families and staff between 5:30 - 6:00 a.m. of a change to the school day.

For Early Dismissals, we will notify families and staff as soon as we are able, depending on the emergent nature of the circumstances.

When regularly scheduled school days are cancelled, delayed or closed early due to weather or other emergency conditions, information will be available on the district and school websites, via emergency text, email, and voice alerts, on district social media, and from the following radio and television stations:

  • WCTC 1450 AM

  • ABC-TV CHANNEL 7

  • CBS-TV CHANNEL 2

  • NBC-TV CHANNEL 4
