On
occasion, the district's schools may run late or be closed altogether.
Generally, this is weather or power related. If the roads are not
safe (icy), we may delay the start of school for an hour or two to
allow time for driving conditions to improve. Likewise, if the power
is out, school may be delayed or closed.
The
Public Schools Emergency Communications System (PSECS), which serves
most school districts in Western Washington, provides communications
services for school districts. The PSECS site provides a report of school schedule changes due to adverse
weather conditions and other emergency situations for member school
districts, colleges, and private schools. PSECS also provides this
information to the local media so they can keep their information and
reports current.
While
the information on the PSECS system is generally accurate and current,
what the news media reports is sometimes a more limited version of what
we post on PSECS. To make sure you get accurate and current
information, people are encouraged to go to the PSECS site directly, go
to the district web site or simply call one of the schools. Any
schedule changes will be on the school voicemail recordings.
Unless otherwise noted, schools are operating on normal schedules. To see if there is closure or delay information for our district, follow this link to South Whidbey Schools on PSECS.
