In the event of a school closing, delayed opening, or early dismissal, an announcement will be included on the Main Page of the MCA website, usually by 6:00 AM at the latest. Please watch for these indicators on the upper left corner of each webpage:

Additionally, please turn your radios and televisions on to know if we are closing school. They give the reports frequently and they give our school the best coverage since we are local. Closing will also be announced on radio stations

• WCBK-102.5 FM,
• WIBC-1070 AM,
• WXIR-98.3 FM,
• WFMS-95.5 FM,
• WGNR-97.9,
• and on television channels 6, 8,13, and 59.
   

A lot of consideration goes into closing school. The foremost is safety of the children. However, since our families come from several different communities, the weather and road conditions can be different. If in your area, the weather is bad or the roads are hazardous and school is still in session, please do not hesitate to keep your children home. The absence is considered excused.

Weather could cause school to close early in the day. Your radio, again, is your best friend in communicating this. We try to listen to weather reports carefully during the school day. When school has closed early, in the past we have had to call those names that are listed on the student’s application for emergencies in order to get them a ride.

*PLEASE BE SURE THAT WE HAVE UP-TO-DATE EMERGENCY NUMBERS TO CALL.
