Although emergency school closings most likely occur during winter months due to snow and icy road conditions, school can close in individual buildings at any time. Boiler trouble, lack of water and electrical power failure are among the reasons why district schools have been closed in the past. The Superintendent has the final responsibility for closing a school.
When schools close prior to the opening of the school day, all activities and events for that day and evening are canceled. When schools are closed during the school day, after-school and evening activities are canceled for the balance of that day. Scheduled athletic events are also canceled unless otherwise announced.
To ensure that your child will be properly cared for in the event that schools are dismissed early and no one is at home, please make arrangements at the beginning of the school year so your child will be assured of shelter when arriving home. Please be sure to carefully explain all of these arrangements to your child.
A one-hour or two-hour delay in the start of morning classes may be announced if weather reports indicate that early morning snow or ice will change to rain, or that additional time will enable road crews to clear the roads.
