What does the Information mean?
School closure
When
schools are closed for a day due to an emergency, weather or safety
factors, the school building will not be used for day care, evening
events, classes or activities. Unless otherwise stated, all evening
meetings and activities are canceled.
Two-Hour Delay
Schools
will be opened, but two hours late. School buses will operate as close
to two hours behind schedule as road conditions will allow. THERE MAY BE
A DELAY FOR SPECIFIC SCHOOLS OR FOR CERTAIN SCHOOL LEVELS (SUCH AS FOR
ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS ONLY). When there is a two-hour delay, day care
services begin at 8:30 a.m.
Snow Routes
Bus
snow routes may differ from regular routes. School bus drivers and the
individual schools will provide students and parents with information
about snow route bus stops. The Transportation Department also has this
information.
Early Release and
Activities
When schools must close early, activities will be canceled and early transportation home will be arranged.
Kindergarten
When
there is a two-hour delay, morning kindergarten classes will be
canceled. When schools close early because of inclement weather, no
afternoon kindergarten sessions will be held. In the event of a two-hour
early release, morning kindergarten students will ride home with the
older students on the regular routes.
