School Closings & Delays

School Closings & Delays 
 

Below are the guidelines for students for the 2024-2025 school year as we enter the winter season with the possibility of hazardous driving conditions and colder weather.  We know that these changes create additional scheduling challenges for families and will try to make a decision by 6:00 a.m. whenever possible. The safety of the students has been and will continue to be our primary concern on inclement weather days.



Calamity Day
No school for all students
No Food Services

2 Hr. Delay
Breakfast and Lunch will be served on a modified schedule.
All students will follow a modified schedule that starts 2 hours later and ends at the normal time.
AM Pre-K classes will be cancelled
PM Pre-K will run as usual
 

When there is a change due to weather, information will be announced via the district’s communication tools which includes: 


The following media outlets will also be provided delay and closing information: 


News

TV

Radio

Mansfield News Journal

Richland Source

WMFD TV 68 - Channel 15

Action News/CBS - Channel 19

WJW/Fox8 - Channel 8

WEWS/ABC - Channel 5

WKYC/NBC - Channel 3

WMAN - 1400  AM  

WVNO  - 106.1 FM

Y-105 - 105.3 FM

 WRGM - 1440 AM        



If schools are in session and weather conditions deteriorate, the safety of the students may require an early dismissal.  In homes where both parents work, an early dismissal can be very inconvenient.  We urge those parents to be certain that the children, especially the younger ones, know where to go if we dismiss early. We will use the same methods of notification for early dismissal that we use for cancellation or 2-hour delays.

 
NO ANNOUNCEMENT WILL BE MADE BY THE MEDIA WHEN THE SCHOOLS WILL BE OPEN.
