Winter Weather Policy:
Delays – We are not bus dependent and do not have delays. School will start at the regular time, regardless of what time other schools start their day. Parents, of course, should determine their own level of comfort when driving and may drop off later if the need arises.
Early Closings – We are not bus dependent and as a rule we do not close early. Parents, of course, should determine their own level of comfort when driving and may pick up early if the need arises. The exception for closing early would be if very extreme/dangerous weather or road conditions developed. If this should occur, we will contact each family by text alert, phone or email.
Partial School Closure – Without extreme weather conditions you may bring your child for a daycare day if you have AM and/or PM care in your child’s program. Montessori Academy’s main communication will be sending out a text alert and may post “No School. Open for daycare.” announcements on the local television station 7 WEHT or Tristatehomepage.com
Whole School Closure – If travel warnings/watches are declared in Vanderburgh and/or Warrick County due to very extreme/dangerous weather, Montessori Academy will be closed and will not have school or daycare. The school’s main communication will be sending out a text alert and email.
If a state-of-emergency is declared in Vanderburgh and/or Warrick County Montessori Academy will be closed and will not have school or daycare.
Snow Make-up Days – We do not have snow make-up days.

A few reminders –
If your child has a fever, is vomiting and/or has diarrhea, they must stay home for 24 hours from their last symptom; even if this happened over the weekend.
Sending things to school via Montessori bag – If you are sending an item in the Montessori bag, please let us know via email. We do not regularly check the children’s bags.
