School Closings & Delays

School Closings and Delays

The superintendent or superintendent's designee may order the closing, the delay in opening, or the early dismissal or any or all schools in order to protect the safety and welfare of the students and staff. Unless employees are notified that their work schedule is changed due to adverse weather or emergency conditions, it is expected that all employees will work according to the terms of their contract and division policy. During adverse weather or emergency conditions, employees follow guidelines from the superintendent related to work schedules. The guidelines may be reviewed by the Fredericksburg City School Board.
