Forecast: Ice or Flooding
  • Between 3:30-5:00 a.m., District personnel drive all areas of the District to evaluate road and bridge conditions.
  • The District monitors forecasts from the National Weather Bureau and local radio and television stations.
  • The Director of Transportation and Executive Director for Operations report road and bridge conditions to the Superintendent.
  • Superintendent Mark Henry confers with superintendents of surrounding school districts.
  • After evaluating all information, the Superintendent makes a decision by 5:30 a.m. Radio and television stations are immediately notified whether or not school will be in session for broadcast on the 6:00 a.m. news.
Early Closing of School due to emergency conditions:
  • After students arrive at school, they are seldom released early. However, if conditions at school warrant early release or if weather and/or road conditions deteriorate, it may be necessary to dismiss school early to get students home safely.
