School Closing to Weather Due
North Mac Community Unit District #34
Dear Parent/Guardian:
The North Mac School District will make every effort to keep all schools open throughout the school year. During inclement weather, when schools are open, a parent/guardian makes the final decision as to their child’s attendance at school should weather conditions be considered too severe for a child to travel to and from school.
It is sometimes necessary to close the district’s schools due to an emergency. Inclement weather is usually the major cause of school closings; however, other emergencies could occur at any time necessitating the closing of school.
Please discuss with your child what to do when the North Mac School District announces an emergency school closing. You are encouraged to develop a plan with your child should the school closing announcement be made after you have left for work, or if you are unable to be home when your child returns home following an emergency school closing.
When a determination is made that school should be closed to protect the health and safety of students, the information will be made over the district’s Skylert notification system.
