As we move through what has been an especially challenging winter, I want to share some information on school closures this year, which have resulted from a combination of snow accumulation, extreme cold, and the impact cold weather has on our daily operations. We recognize that each closure has meaningful consequences for working families, daily routines, and student learning, and we approach these decisions with great care.
The process to close school is a complex decision that balances student and staff safety with our commitment to keeping schools open whenever reasonably possible. In addition to weather conditions, we must consider road safety, bus transportation, building operations, and our ability to adequately staff facilities.
Whenever possible, school closures are made the evening before using the best available weather forecasts and after checking road conditions. Our priority is safety and to allow families as much time as possible to prepare.
Saying that, unfortunately, I will need to make the decision regarding Tuesday, tomorrow morning. If we are closing, I hope to let you all know by 5:30 am Tuesday.
Thank you for your continued understanding and patience.
