Closures and Delays - There are many pieces that come into play when the decision to close/delay/dismiss is made. The most important variable is the ability to get students to/from school safely. In order to determine this, local highway superintendents are consulted along with district snowplow drivers. Weather forecasts are monitored, and superintendents from surrounding school districts are referred to. Decisions are made in the interest of student safety after a thorough review.
Sometimes, some parents believe that the roads are too dangerous and question why school is open. If a parent believes that their child/children may be put in a dangerous situation because school wasn’t closed, the caretaker has the right to keep the children home for the day. Please contact the transportation center as early as possible when this option is chosen.
School Messenger, our automated phone system, will send out text messages, phone calls, and e-mails as long as accurate directory information is established in the program. If you do not receive messages, please contact Jodi Shantal at 684-9300, so we can update our records.
