Important Note

In the event the weather takes an unexpected turn for the worse after the school day has already begun, please monitor the above resources for the possibility of an early dismissal.

Please also note that all delays will be one and one half hours. Parents are encouraged to make alternate plans for supervision of their children should school be dismissed early. Please do not call the school. For one and a half hour delay the starting time will be 10:30 and dismissal time will remain 3:30.

For bus students, add one hour and thirty minutes to determine the time the bus arrives at your stop. For example, if your bus usually arives at 8:25 A.M., it will arrive at 9:55 A.M. When there is one and one half hour delay, children must not be brought to school before the designated time because there is no supervision available.
