Inclement Weather Policy

Students and Faculty

Because many faculty members and students live on campus, and because all students can now connect to their classes via technology, the School does not generally cancel classes during inclement weather. 

If weather causes the School to be closed or if there is a delayed opening, a phone message as well as a text alert will be sent to all phone numbers provided on the Veracross Parent Portal. In all cases, students are expected to check the Schoology online course system for assignments or other instructions.

If on-campus classes are canceled for inclement weather, boarding students will follow a special schedule that includes extra activities for that day.

Schedule

When the School operates on a delayed-opening schedule, the emergency notification system, Schoology, and the website will provide details on class start times and where students should report upon arrival. In most cases, students will report to every class with a shortened schedule for each.
