Policy on School Attendance and Weather Impacts
The board states money is available for maintaining schools for the established days and parents should expect open schools daily as calendared, weather permitting. Attendance should vary with storm intensity, with fewer primary students on bad days and more in upper grades. The outdated notion of daily required advanced assignments is rejected in favor of individualized help when few students are present.
