Adair County Schools/Winter Weather Protocol/Cancellations

Adair County School Superintendent Alan W. Reed has announced the snow plan for Adair County Schools for 2012-2013, with a list of media which will be notified when there is a need to announce "GO/NO-GO." for the district:

By Alan W. Reed, Superintendent, Adair County School District

Snow Plan - Adair County Schools 2012/13

Protocol

The Superintendent and Transportation Director will spot check rural, secondary and primary roads in Adair County. They will also rely on information provided by Kentucky State Police and the National Weather Service. In addition, information from neighboring districts may be taken into consideration.

The decision to cancel school is solely the decision of the Superintendent and Transportation Director, who will be working together. In the event of Mr. Reed's absence, Ms. Brenda Mann and Mr. David Jones shall make the GO/NO GO decision. In certain situations, the Superintendent may decide to delegate weather related cancellations solely to the Transportation Director.

Due to both safety and childcare decisions, it is important that weather related cancellations be made in a timely manner. Our intent is to make "GO/NO-GO" decisions by 5:00 a.m. C.T., but please keep in mind that winter weather is often unpredictable and certain circumstances could delay the announcement. We will make announcements through the following sources:
  • -Columbiamagazine.com
  • -Accvonline.com/Community Voice
  • -WAIN AM-FM (93.5)
  • -WHVE, The Wave (92.7)
  • -WVLC, The Big Dawg (99.9)
  • -WBKO Television (Channel 13)
  • -One Call Now (automated calling)
There will be times when the GO/NO GO decision will be made the evening prior to the cancellation(s) and will be announced utilizing the above named media resources.

It is not feasible to communicate with all media outlets in the state. Therefore, it is responsibility of employees, parents and/or students to rely on one or more of the named resources for information regarding school closings.

If you have questions, please contact Adair County Schools at 270-384-2476.
