Delayed Openings/Early Release

    Return to the Parent Handbook Page.  

    School delays, closings, and early dismissals due to inclement weather are announced on local radio and TV stations beginning at 5:30 a.m.

    A two-hour delay means school will begin at 11:25a.m.

    When we have a two-hour delay, students should not be dropped off before 11:10a.m.

    The time for early release will be 1:20p.m.

    All students eat lunch prior to going home on an early release day.

    Students should know where they are to go without having to call home if school is dismissed early for any reason.

    Please avoid calling the school office for early release/ delay information. Please visit the MCPS Emergency Information web site for Emergency Alerts.
