Winter weather has finally arrived which means inclement weather conditions may impact school district operations. Student and staff safety are top priority when making a decision during these types of days and communication of these is as important.

The district will monitor weather factors as well as coordinate with local, state and district authorities as well as neighboring school districts. We drive our transportation routes beginning around 3:30 am and throughout each day, which include our town and rural routes as well as check our school facilities for safety measures.

We will make a decision to hold school, implement a 2-hour delay, early release, or close school by 5 am or 5 pm the night prior, by the superintendent. If we are closing school early, we will notify by 1 pm.

Communication efforts will be made by 5:30 am to families and communities through our website, text, email, and phone call, as well as Facebook and radio. We will also inform local and regional agencies of our decision. Please make sure your phone number and email are current in our system.
