School Cancellation, Delayed Opening, After School Programs,
and Early Release Days

It is occasionally necessary to cancel school, cancel school events, or delay opening because of snow or other emergencies.  The class schedule on the day of return to school after a cancellation is usually the one that is scheduled for that day.  Please refer to website for specific daily schedule when necessary.  If the school opening is delayed, buses will run one and a half hours after their regularly scheduled time, unless otherwise specified.

All school cancellations and delayed openings
will be communicated via listserv [Click here to join our listserv],
