Foggy Day Schedule

In the event of severe foggy weather conditions, a Foggy Day Schedule may be called. There are two variants of this:

  • Plan A: a two-hour delay in bus transportation. Busses will begin their pick-ups two hours after they are normally scheduled. School will begin at the normal time for students not riding the bus. School will still release at the same time as normal.
  • Plan B: a three-hour delay in bus transportation. Busses will begin their pick-ups three hours after they are normally scheduled. School will begin at the normal time for students not riding the bus. School will still release at the same time as normal.
  • Plan C: morning transportation cancelled. School will begin at the normal time for students not riding the bus. School will still release at the same time as normal.
