School District Announces Emergency School Closing Procedures
The administration of the Frederic School District wishes to remind parents of procedures it follows in the event Frederic area schools are forced to delay starting times, dismiss early, or cancel classes. If weather conditions or other circumstances develop which alter the normal school schedule, in addition to the Infinite Campus Parent Portal Messenger, the following will be notified and requested to announce the delayed start or school closing:
Television Stations:
- WCCO (Channel 4)
- KSTP (Channel 5)
- KMSP (Channel 9)
- KARE 11 (Channel 11)
Websites:
Parents are asked to listen to one of these stations or check the websites on those mornings or any time they are in doubt about weather and road conditions. Parents should not contact these stations or the school directly as this may limit the school district's ability to inform the media of its decisions relative to closing, delayed starts, early releases, and changes in athletic/extra-curricular event schedules.
If severe weather conditions develop during school hours and it becomes necessary to dismiss students for home before regular dismissal times, the Parent Portal notification system will be activated and television stations will be notified and asked to announce the time of the early dismissal.
In the event of school closing or early dismissal, all extra-curricular activities will also be canceled or postponed unless otherwise announced.
Roots and Branches Childcare will remain open during inclement weather days.
