Notifications

When an emergency or inclement weather requires a change to the student school hours, parents/guardians will receive a call from the school messenger system when a delay or cancellation is called. The following radio/TV stations and the Indiana Gazette, will also carry the announcement. The media is normally contacted between 5:30 - 6:00 am when school is to be delayed or cancelled. When the decision is made to dismiss early, the media will be notified immediately.
