EMERGENCY CLOSING POLICY
The Superintendent/Principal is authorized by the Board of Education to close the school, open late or dismiss early, in hazardous weather or in other extraordinary circumstances that might endanger the health or safety of pupils or school employees.
Each year parents/guardians, pupils, and staff members are informed in advance of how they will be notified in the event of an emergency closing. Parents/guardians shall be required to make alternative arrangements for their children in case no one is home to receive a child after an unscheduled early closing. If the situation warrants an evacuation of the school premises, the children will be taken to the Parish House on Valley Road for safe keeping until picked up by their parents/guardians. |
