What You Need To Know About School Closures & Delays
\r\nWinter is upon us and this may cause College Place Public Schools to close or delay school in the event of snow, ice or other weather-related emergencies.
\r\nWe will make every effort to announce closures or delays by 6:00 a.m. If conditions change or worsen after the decision is made to delay school, it is possible that the district may cancel school. We will try to make a final decision by 7:00 am.
\r\nIf there is no mention on the district website of delays or closures, schools are running on the normal schedule.

What happens with a 2-Hour Delay?
\r\nIf the District calls a 2-hour delay, there is still the possibility it could change to a closure if conditions worsen. Please continue to check the website frequently for any updates and remember to refresh your browser.
If school is delayed, buses will run on a 2-hour delay from normal pick-up times and breakfast service and preschool will be canceled.
What happens When School is Closed?
\r\nIf school is closed, all out-of-district transportation, meetings, field trips, after-school activities, practices, and games will be canceled for the day unless otherwise announced. All evening meetings and events scheduled to take place in district facilities will also be canceled.
