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.

Add a comment to discuss. Cast a vote on the left.

  1. I am in favor of Richland One alignment because it is easier to get information regarding open/close/delay status from numerous sources. Unless Harmony Administration has some other idea in mind on how to quickly disseminate status I would stick with R1. Bob Higgins

  2. I think we should keep the policy as if (aligned with Richland 1). If you have kids in more than 1 school - it is easier. Plus you are not second guessing what is happening. Finally, given that this happens only once or twice a year (if that much!) - this is no big deal either way
