Inclement Weather Policy

From the Harmony Board

Dear Harmony Parent:

The school administration and board are exploring the possibility of changing the school's inclement weather policy. The existing policy is to close or delay if Richland School District One is closed or on a delay.

Under consideration is changing the policy so that on days of potentially enclement weather, school administration make the dicision to close by a time (to be determined later). This change would allow a school closing to be based on actual weather conditions on the day in question rather than automatically follow Richland School District One's lead.

Please give us your thoughts on two things:

1. Continue to follow Richland One's schedule to close or delay in inclement weather.
2. Remain open unless Harmony administration deems a need to close or delay due to
inclement weather.

School Picnic - Please Discuss

From the Harmony Board

Dear Harmony Parents,
The end of the year family picnic is a fun opportunity for Harmony students and families to gather together. In the past, the picnic has been held during the students' lunch time and families are responsible for bringing their own lunch. This year it is scheduled for Wednesday, May 13.

It's been proposed that we consider making this an after-school potluck cookout to give families more of an opportunity to socialize together. If held after school, we could grill out and families could bring sides.

Please share your thoughts on keeping this fun event A) during the students' lunchtime or B) moving it to an after school & after work time.

You may post comments to discuss this proposal. Cast your vote on the left.
