In case of severe weather, parents and students should listen to one of the following radio or television stations for school closings or late starts.
Cancellation or late-start announcements will be made on the above media as early in the morning as possible, and also will be recorded after 7:00 a.m. on the bus garage answering machine at 527-4116. Please do not call school personnel at their homes for this information.
If school is in session and threatening weather conditions occur, an announcement will be made immediately on the above stations that school will be dismissed early.
We have a real concern here at West when an emergency early dismissal occurs because of heat or inclement weather. During this time our phone lines become very busy and it is difficult for parents to get a message to us. Many times a parent is out of the community on that day, and we are unsure of where that child should go. Your child needs to know what to do in case of an unexpected early dismissal. Please go over this procedure with your child, pre-plan. Calling a parent is not a plan. There are approximately 470 students here which makes it impossible for each student to call a parent.
