School Cancellations
School Cancellation – Late Starts – Early Dismissals
In the event of severe weather or some other unforeseen event, it may become necessary to cancel school for the entire day, delay the start of the school day or cancel school after the school day has begun and send students home earlier than the normal time.
Serious consideration is given prior to dismissing students early as many children may be returning to an empty household. It is extremely important for families with younger children to have a pre-arranged plan of what to do if the school is let out early.
The decision to cancel, delay or dismiss early will be communicated through the following:
