WEATHER RELATED SCHOOL CLOSURE POLICY
September 1, 2007

In the Pacific Northwest we can often expect inclement weather during the school year. Since we are a small school and cannot publish our weather-related closure schedule with the local media, we will do so via Cancellations.com. We will not contact you by phone. ASA will post notification of school closures on the Cancellation.com website by 7:00 a.m. Therefore we urge you to subscribe to Cancellations.com.

To be alerted automatically via e-mail, log on to www.cancellations.com and go to "email notifications," click "join for free" and follow the instructions provided.
Our weather-related school closure schedule will coincide with the local Beaverton School District. If Beaverton schools are closing, ASA will close also. ASA will notify you on Cancellations.com if there is a need to delay the opening of school due to bad weather.

If we encounter hazardous driving conditions after school is in session, ASA will contact you via Cancellations.com. Please have a contingency arrangement in place in the event that inclement weather necessitates an early school dismissal.

ASA understands that weather conditions can vary depending on where you live in the Portland Metropolitan area. Your safety is very important to ASA. If you experience hazardous road conditions in your area and do not feel you can safely drive your child to school, please contact ASA as soon as possible so we can notify the teacher and excuse your child for the day.
