With old man winter just around the corner, I would like to encourage our parents to have plans mapped out for school early dismissals, delays, and closures due to inclement weather.
Parents, now is the time to begin making appropriate child care arrangements and alternative plans should the district be forced to dismiss early, delay or close school due to inclement weather. Also, make sure you have provided the schools with accurate telephone numbers and contact information in regards to emergencies. This is especially critical if we must close school early.
I would also urge you to speak to your teenage driver or your child who may be riding with a teenage driver about safety precautions.
We hope you
understand closing school due to inclement weather is taken very
seriously. Safety is first and foremost,
but it is our intent to make decisions as soon as possible and to announce our
decision to the public immediately using a host of media platforms including
our new automatic messaging system called School Messenger. Remember you can login to your School Messenger account to keep your contact information current and to set your contact preferences for a phone call, e-mail and TXT messages. If you didn't setup your School Messenger account at the beginning of the school year and would still like to do so e-mail
