Late Start Policy Reminders

By Hodges, Barb on October 25, 2021

This time last year, we experienced our first snow. So, here are a few reminders about our Late Start Policy. Feel free to hit that share button to keep other PCR-I families informed.

In the case of bad weather, we could incorporate late starts when we feel it would be safe to do so. Below are some important facts about a late start:

• We will do a school reach letting you know how many hours we will delay the start of the school day. For example, if we delay for two hours, school would start at 10:15 a.m.

• Radio stations and KTVO will be informed of our late start time.

• If school is started two hours late, the bus will run two hours behind its regular schedule. For example, if you are normally picked up at 7:15 a.m., you will get picked up about 9:15 a.m.

• SOAR will continue with its regular hours.

• Students should not come to the school until the delay is over or 20 minutes before. From the example above, students could start arriving at 9:55 a.m.

• Breakfast will be available for students.

• School will let out at the regular time.

If you have any questions about either of the two items, please feel free to contact Mrs. Barb Hodges. Have a great day!
