Emergency Closings

 

http://www.chapinschool.org/intrachapin/NewsCenter/Flyers%20and%20Notices/image001.jpg

 

During bad weather or an emergency situation, Chapin will either CLOSE  or have a TWO-HOUR DELAY, opening  at 10:00 am. Because so many of our students travel considerable distances, safety, road conditions and the availability of busing are the primary factors in our decision. We consult with other independent and public schools and review weather forecasts in an effort to make a decision as early as possible so parents can make appropriate arrangements. If you are concerned about the weather, refer to the following  list of broadcasters for information. Please do NOT call the school for this information.

Once children have arrived, we will not close school early, however, sports, activities and the After School Program may be cancelled.

CHANGING WEATHER CONDITIONS
     Parents who are uncomfortable with changing weather patterns in the middle of the day may pick up their children early by calling first and coming to the Front Office.

PUBLIC SCHOOL TRANSPORTION
      If your public school’s closing or delayed opening times differ from Chapin’s, then you are responsible for coordinating your child’s transportation to and from school.

     • If your public school is closed and Chapin is open, you need to bring your child to school.

     • If your public school has a delayed opening and Chapin does not, you also need to bring your child to school.

     • If your public school has a one-hour delayed opening, and Chapin has a regular two-hour delayed opening, your child CAN ride the bus as someone will be at the school to supervise. 
     If your child’s bus arrives early for pick-up due to extreme weather conditions, we will not release your child unless we have reached you or your emergency contact to verify transportation arrangements. If we cannot contact you, your child will be held at school until you arrive.
