We have the option of using delayed openings in the event that weather predictions indicate road conditions will improve by mid-morning. The following time schedule will apply for Delayed Openings:

School day starts at 10:30 a.m.

Notice of all day closings as well as delayed openings is given over the following information sources:

WHWH (AM) - 1350, WPST (FM) - 94.5, WKXW (FM) - 101.5, WCVH (FM) &endash; 90.5, WJHR (AM) 1040, Channel 10 NBC News (TV), and www.eastamwell.org.

At times it may be necessary to close school early for emergencies such as impending storms. You are responsible to see that prior arrangements have been made for your child for such cases of emergencies so proper supervision is provided when he arrives home. Please do not call the school or expect to be called from the school in such cases of emergencies as our telephone lines must be kept open to contact our bus drivers, etc. Through the courtesy of the PTA, they will make an effort to notify you at home or at work as per your response and completion of the PTA Early Notification form attached to the material the school sends home on opening day of school. However, this procedure cannot be guaranteed to be foolproof. Please instruct your child on what to do should early dismissal be necessary.
