Comet Care Emergency Closing / Delayed Opening Policy:
When school is cancelled for the entire day due to bad weather or other emergencies, the Comet Care Program will also be closed. If a Delayed Opening is called for any emergency reason, Comet Care program will also be delayed. The District’s Emergency Phone System will notify you if there is a delayed opening. Information regarding closings is also posted on our Web Site: https://www.swedesboro-woolwich.com/
Early Dismissal
If it becomes necessary to close school early due to inclement weather, an emergency, or after school activities are cancelled once the school day has begun, the Comet Care Program will also be cancelled and children will be sent home. The Superintendent will issue a School Messenger alert to all parents. In addition, the Comet Care phone chains will be activated, and the site leaders will attempt to contact the Comet Care parents directly, if needed.
Parents are reminded to:
1) Make provisions for emergency dismissals or delayed openings.
2) Instruct their children about these emergency arrangements.
3) Have these arrangements in place at the beginning of the school year to be prepared for any emergency situations.
4) Listen to radio announcements; check our Web Site, view local/cable television during questionable weather conditions.
5) Keep emergency telephone numbers current; the emergency contacts listed must be available during school hours, reliable, and from the local area.
Thank you and be safe!
