The District has extensive Emergency Procedures to maintain the safety of everyone. We have adopted an Emergency Notification Service which allows us to send a telephone message to student homes providing important information about school events or emergencies. We are using this system to notify parents of school delays or cancellations due to inclement weather. In the event of an emergency at school, parents can have peace of mind knowing that they will be informed immediately by phone. On any given day, parents and staff are urged to use caution when making the decision to drive or walk over snow and ice covered roads.
For weather-related decisions, the District consults with our local meteorologists, police departments, bus company, and surrounding districts in an attempt to make the best decision possible given the circumstances. We appreciate your cooperation and patience and ask that you avoid calling school (unless there is an emergency). During inclement weather, it is important to keep the phone lines open.
Below are the delayed opening times for the District:
- Jr-Sr High School - student arrival at 9:20am, with classes beginning at 9:40am
- Elementary - student arrival at 10:20am, with classes beginning at 10:30am
We will make every attempt to hold in-person instruction on days with inclement weather (even if that means instituting a delayed opening). One inclement weather day per year will be reserved for a "traditional snow day." If used, this day will not be made up. All other inclement weather days will be virtual instruction days.
