How are decisions made? While preserving the safety of the students is clearly the highest priority, the District also endeavors to adhere to the established school calendar when possible. Canceling or delaying school because of adverse weather conditions causes a good deal of inconvenience for parents and in many cases students are left at home alone throughout the entire day. These factors are considered in relation to the risk-level involved in transporting students when weather conditions are questionable.
How is information gathered to make decisions on bad weather days? Early in the morning around 3:00 a.m., designated school personnel begin driving roads throughout the district to determine the status of roads and existing weather patterns. Information secured from these individuals is then used to make decisions regarding the feasibility of safely transporting students to and from school.

Where can one get information concerning school delay or closure? Whenever possible, decisions regarding school closure or delay are made by 5:00 a.m. During inclement weather, check one of the following places between 5:00 and 8:30 a.m. for school schedule updates:
