Inclement Weather Update

School will not be dismissed because of weather conditions that arise during the school day as long as it is feasible for students and staff to remain safely at school. If a situation arises where an early dismissal is needed, students will follow instructions set by their parent or guardian in the Early Dismissal information filed during fall registration. Please keep it up to date. The staff will not call home at time of dismissal. Parents must review with their child procedures to follow at home should emergency dismissal be necessary.

Parents are urged not to send their children to school when storm conditions exist or road conditions create a definite hazard. Please notify the elementary office if you choose to do this.

If adverse weather conditions exist before school begins and the superintendent decides the weather to be of such a nature that the safety of the students is threatened, she will notify the following Kansas City radio/TV stations to have a school closing announcement broadcast.

School closings will also be announced on the USD 458 information line 724-1777 & 723-3400.
