Closings due to inclement weather shall be determined by the superintendent. Temperatures or wind chills colder than 25 degrees below zero shall be a guide for determining extreme weather when considering school cancellation.
The decision to cancel school will be announced as soon as possible. Some situations may allow this decision to be made the evening prior to the cancellation, but many times the decision may come early in the morning.
In the morning, when school is to be cancelled for the entire day due to inclement weather, the following procedures will be followed:
As soon as possible, families will be notified via email and text using the Apptegy App. It will also be posted on the district website under “Live Feed”.
An attempt will be made to publish school closings at KSDK Channel 5, KMOV Channel 4, KTVI Channel 2, and KDNL TV Channel 12.
When possible, there will be at least one hour between when the superintendent's call is placed and the time school is scheduled to start or dismiss. Parents are requested to monitor email and/or text or visit the Live Feed when possible.
