WINTER WEATHER
There's some wintery weather in the forecast, so we want to remind North Franklin School District families of our procedures for school closures and late starts due to inclement weather. We are committed to making timely, informed decisions with the safety of our students, parents, and staff as our top priority. Our team actively monitors road conditions and weather forecasts and collaborates with neighboring districts. We understand that weather conditions can vary significantly within our district, and our decisions consider the safety of everyone in our school community. We appreciate your understanding that our decisions may not always be universally popular. In the event of a delay or closure, we will provide up-to-the-minute information through automated calls and texts, our website and mobile app, Facebook, and local news/radio stations. Thank you for your continued support.
