Potential Late Start Monday, March 4
This event may actually allow for a decision to be made on Sunday night. There are three options: Normal day, 2-hour late start, or no school. Based on what weather forecasts (Situation Report) are currently showing a normal school day is unlikely, but I wanted to give everyone as much notice as possible.
If a 2-hour late start is decided, all school functions will begin exactly 2 hours later than normal. Busses will begin their routes exactly 2 hours later than normal. Bus pick ups will be exactly 2 hours (give or take a few minutes) later than normal. Parents may drop students off at school at 9:30 AM (2 hours later than the normal 7:30 AM). No breakfast will be served. Lunch will be served as normal. School will be dismissed at its normal time.
If school is delayed or cancelled, we will use the normal means of communication to notify parents and students.
