Snow Plan - Adair County Schools 2016/17 CM Note: Again this year, ColumbiaMagazine.com will coordinate reporting Go/No Go for schools, workplaces, churches, and libraries with Larry Smith and WHVE, The WAVE (92.7); and WVLC, The Big Dawg (99.9) with information on area closings making every effort to have reliable news as early as possible. - EW Click on headline for complete story with complete list of the Adair County Schools' media outlets By Adair County School Superintendent Alan W. Reed Another winter is fast approaching. The Adair County School District is making preparations in case ice and snow blankets our roadways. Our Transportation Director, David Jones, and I typically begin our mornings early when a weather event is likely (usually Midnight to 4 a.m. Our goal is to make a GO/NO GO decision by 4:45 a.m. Sometimes it is an easy call but many times it is not. However, we always err on the side of caution since safety will always be the top priority in any and all "GO/NO GO" decisions Protocol for this winter: The Superintendent and Transportation Director will spot check rural, secondary and primary roads in Adair County. They will also rely on information provided by Kentucky State Police and the National Weather Service. In addition, information from neighboring districts may be taken into consideration. The decision to cancel school is solely the decision of the Superintendent and Transportation Director, who will be working together. In the event of Mr. Reed's absence, Mr. David Jones shall make the GO/NO GO decision Due to both safety and child care decisions, we feel that it is important that weather related cancellations be made as early as possible. Our intent is to make "GO/NO-GO" decisions by 4:45amCT, but please keep in mind that winter weather is often unpredictable, and that certain circumstances could delay the announcement. We will make announcements through the following sources: - School Messenger automated dialing and message systemThere could be times when the GO/NO GO decision will be made the evening prior to the cancellation(s) and will be announced utilizing the above named media resources. It is not feasible to communicate with all media outlets in the state. Therefore, it is responsibility of employees, parents and/or students to rely only one or more of the named resources for official information regarding school closings in Adair County. If you have questions or want to offer suggestions on how we can improve our snow plan, I would appreciate hearing from you. My number here at the board office is 270-384-2476. - Alan W. Reed, Superintendent This story was posted on 2016-11-21 10:54:23
