Inclement Weather Update | December 10, 2012
As we move into the inclement weather season, we wanted to remind parents about our notification procedures in the event of weather closings. During bad weather, we make every attempt to assess the road conditions and notify staff and students as early as possible.  The district will use several communication avenues to notify parents, students, and staff.  The School Messenger automated phone calling system will be utilized in the event of a delay or school closure.  If you recently changed phone numbers and have not notified the district, please make certain your information is accurate by contacting  your child's campus.  In addition, we will post the information on the EM-S ISD website, the District’s social networking sites and notify all local television and radio outlets.

Normal procedure in the district is not to close schools early once students are in attendance. This is for the safety and well being of all students, since many students may not have some one at home if they are released early. Weather and road conditions can vary greatly from area to area. As a result, you, as parents, are the final decision makers regarding your son/daughter's attendance. Please notify the school office if your son/daughter will not be in school or should be dismissed early due to weather conditions.

Weather related school closing decisions are made by school officials and reported to the radio and television media by 6:00 a.m. each morning. Stay tuned as the media updates the list.  School closing information is also posted on www.emsisd.com.
