WINTER WEATHER

 

          As usual, winter in Oklahoma signals period of cold and sometimes adverse weather conditions for Calumet School District.  Continued snow and icy roads may result in school closing for students.

In the event school starts late, dismisses early, or cancels due to inclement weather; all news media in the area will be notified immediately. Parents should keep their televisions on major network Channels (ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX) for possible cancellation due to bad weather.

If very many days are missed due to adverse weather, we may have to add some days to the end of the school year or spring break.  Some “Snow Days” are already in the calendar.

Schools are generally closed when it is determined by the school administration that buses cannot operate safely due to adverse weather.  However, the most hazardous areas for school buses to travel are paved highways.  When the weather is bad, we remind all bus drivers to be cautious and drive defensively.  Our drivers realize that the safety of the children is their top priority.
