Big weather event coming tomorrow - what is APS gonna do?

Getting out at 12:30 is cutting it close. With every child on a laptop or iPad why not go virtual on emergency weather days.

Because not every kid has an iPad or laptop. All first graders and Kindergarteners don’t have one.

The latest dismissals are out by 2, with busses done by 2:45. They’ll all be home before the front gets here.

As of right now, they are on as long as they are not in APS buildings. The community centers that are integrated with schools (TJ, etc.) are scheduled separately and have been open when schools are closed this year. If you have swim, they do close the pool for lightning.

Thanks for your concern, yes I did do that because no thanks to APS, he would have been outside at 2:30-2:45 walking from bus stop and it's already bad out there.

New poster -what our kids were just sent out in was incredibly dangerous. Completely reckless to not hold the buses that dispatched from HB at 1:50.

Oh gee, sorry to hear that. This could have been avoided with a 3 hour early release instead of 2. Insane call to just do 2 hours and then release them right in the middle of the mess. I mean it works out if you go to a school that releases early but what about the later release schools?
