Emergency School Closing Process
In the case of actual or predicted inclement weather, the decision to close school, delay an opening or dismiss early
is made after the Superintendent confers with various area superintendents,
county road
officials, police departments and District transportation and maintenance
departments, in addition to several weather services.
-
If school is cancelled - a decision will usually be
made by 5:30 a.m. and posted on the District website. Please see
below the
various ways in which you can receive information.
-
If school is delayed:
-
A decision will usually be made by 5:30 a.m. and posted
on the District website.
-
School will begin two hours later at 9:45 a.m.
-
All bus routes will be delayed exactly 2 hours from
their original pick-up times.
-
The decision is based upon safe traveling conditions
predicted for later in the morning.
-
If school is dismissed early:
-
Students will usually be dismissed at 11:55 a.m., if
weather conditions call for an early dismissal.
-
The decision will be posted on the District website by
10:45 a.m.
-
Please note: when schools are dismissed early,
all afternoon, evening and athletic activities are cancelled.

The Superintendent
contacts our 10 sending district superintendents to inform them of our decision,
as well as various area superintendents and the County Superintendent of
Schools.
