Inclement Weather Protocols
Evergreen Families,
We work very hard to avoid school closure, as it is very difficult on students, families, and staff. However, just in case, we would like to remind you of our emergency school closure procedures and protocols.
Precautions
Please be sure your child is dressed for colder weather. Students will be required to be indoors when the temperature outside is 5° or lower (including a wind chill factor at or below 5°).
On very cold days, if your child typically walks to school, it is advised that you drive your child to school if at all possible. If your child will be walking to school, please make sure that he or she has the appropriate cold weather clothing. If you need assistance with winter clothing, please contact your school's office.
School Closures
While some surrounding school districts may choose a delayed or late start, we do not intend to use "late starts" in the Evergreen School District due to the significant disruption to learning that occurs and the hardship it places on families. (Therefore, a surrounding school district may start two hours late, while the Evergreen School District may have a regular, full day of school.)
School Closures are announced through the following methods:
Local radio and television stations
Email to the email address we have on file
Emergency phone call to the primary phone number we have on file
Notices posted on the District website and on District social media sites (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter)
Decisions regarding school closure are made by 6:00 a.m. each school day and are communicated to families and staff as soon as possible, usually no later than 6:15 a.m.
We certainly hope to have school as usual throughout this winter but wanted to share our procedures and protocols just in case.
Stay safe and warm out there!
Best regards,
Laurie
