The decision to cancel the regular school day program usually is made no later than 6:00 AM, if at all possible. Only in unusually severe weather conditions is a decision made the night before.
Although rare, the decision to send students home after the school day has begun may be necessary. A decision to close school early will not be made after 11:00 AM.
Elementary school students will be returned to their school if the bus driver determines that they cannot be left at home. Students needing to remain at school for an extended period of time will be transferred to a Kids & Company site.
Students who are kept home by parents because of unusual or hazardous road conditions in their area will have their absences excused. However, those absences are still counted in the attendance policy.
When necessary to close an individual school because of electrical, plumbing, or other problems related only to that building, it will be announced on radio and TV stations.
Kids and Company will offer child care at Rolland-Warner Middle School for children 2½ through 12 years of age on days when school buildings are closed for the entire day due to weather-related conditions.
When school is cancelled, Enrichment classes and children’s recreation league offerings also are cancelled.
Some after-school activities, are not automatically cancelled when school is closed for the day.
Athletic practices that are still held during school closings are optional. Separate decisions are made on these activities, and the information is available after 1:00 pm on the District’s website (www.lapeerschools.org), on LCS-TV (the District’s Charter cable access Channel 99) and on local radio and TV stations.
