Carmel Central School District

As you are aware, during the winter months, morning road conditions may cause school delays. When this occurs, a three-hour delayed opening has been added as an additional option. The Superintendent of Schools will make the decision to call a two-hour, a three-hour or cancellation of school for the day. Options are as follows:

• Two-hour delayed opening— All schools open two (2) hours later than the regular time.

• Three-hour delayed opening—All schools open three (3) hours later than the regular time.

• Should the weather worsen as the morning progresses, school may be canceled for the day.

Parents/guardians will be notified of school delays and cancelations by our automated calling system.  Calls may begin as early as 5:30 a.m.  In addition, announcements will be posted on the District website, Facebook page, Twitter account and mobile app, as well as local radio and television stations (see below). A message will be recorded on the District Office and school building phone lines.
