Delayed Opening Possible closures

Our staff understands that our decision to open, close or delay school opening during inclement weather often disrupts family schedules. We also understand that our children are better served – academically, emotionally and socially – by attending child care regularly.

But, as always, our top priority is the safety of our children and staff, so the decision to close or delay opening is not an easy one. The process is complex and involves many people.

Please understand that we make the decision to open or close the center in bad weather based on a careful analysis of all relevant factors, including:

Information on road conditions from maintenance staff and from local law enforcement and road crews

Amount of snow and/or ice accumulated

Whether precipitation will continue throughout the day

Temperature and wind chill

Weather predictions (including those from a weather alert service)

Storm timing, trajectory and projection

Building conditions (such as whether our building's electricity and/or heat service is disrupted)

Parking lot conditions

There may be times when one center can safely open and another can not due to road conditions or staff not being able to safely make it to the center due to taking public transportation.

At this time we will do our best to open our locations by 9:00am Tuesday, February 2nd. However, we will be evaluating conditions throughout the night and will make a final decision on whether we can open safely by 6:00am.

Please check back for updates tomorrow morning.
