Closings/Delays/ Early Dismissals There are times that, as a result of inclement weather or a failure in power and/or heating systems of the schools, or for other emergency/safety concerns, it is necessary to close the schools of the district either before their day has begun or during the school day. If there is a need to enact a closing, announcements will be made immediately through the appropriate media and a Connect-Ed automated phone message will be generated. Students and their parent(s)/guardian(s) can also tune into local radio or TV stations for this information. Parent(s)/guardian(s) of students should also pay particular attention to possible delays in bus pickups, late arrivals home, or early dismissals and are responsible to listen to public announcements regarding weather emergencies. Please refrain from contacting the school office or central administration to obtain information regarding school closures or early dismissals. Also, parent(s)/guardian(s) are responsible to develop a plan for dealing with instances where children will be dismissed early from school and to inform their children about what to do or where to go in the case of an early dismissal. This should be done early in the school year so that all children are properly prepared for early dismissal at any time. In the case of inclement weather occurring at times when school is in session, please turn on your radio or TV to one of the stations listed below to find out about early dismissals or cancellations.
