[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please point me towards the FCPS plan for tornados or 80 mph winds during the school day? [/quote]

Sure. It’s right here in this regulation:

Thank you.  My child has to ride the school bus home, so it was good to read about the bus policy.

For other parents, just so you know, school buses do not operate normally during a tornado warning or severe weather emergency. If buses have not yet left the school, their departure is delayed until conditions are safe. If buses are already transporting students when severe weather develops, drivers may be directed to return to the nearest school or safe building to shelter students. Students are kept inside buildings rather than traveling because sheltering in a structure is safer than being on a bus during a tornado-producing storm. Normal bus routes resume only after the warning has ended and officials determine it is safe.[/quote]
