Inclement Weather Reminder
Next week, significantly colder weather is projected across our community. We would like to share a few reminders and safety tips as we prepare for the predicted colder temperatures.
As a reminder, there is no school on Monday, January 21st, 2022, in honor of President's Day.
Due to the predicted forecast for extreme cold weather, please see the below safety tips for parents/guardians:
- Ensure your child has a coat, gloves, hat, and other appropriate cold-weather gear to wear throughout the week, and always during our colder months.
- Consider limiting the amount of time students are outside walking to/from school and/or their bus stop.
Our dedicated NCSD transportation team will be preparing busses in advance on Tuesday morning in preparation for the colder weather. Warming school busses will be on standby in case of any unavoidable issues or unexpected delays.
Natrona County School District recognizes that school is an important part of community and family life. As a result, schools will be closed for inclement weather or natural disasters only when the community itself is unable to operate safely.
Primary factors considered are adverse weather conditions and the safe transportation of students and staff. The primary responsibility in protecting a child's health and school attendance always resides with the parent or guardian.
