SNOW DAYS AT ALC
A. Lorne Cassidy Snow Day Procedures
If buses are cancelled, PARENTS OF WALKING STUDENTS MUST reports absences. Please report your absence of your WALKING student in the School Messenger app right away. Alternatively you can email alcabsence@ocdsb.ca or call 613-831-3434.
Parents of students who take the bus do not have to call in their absences as it is assumed that they will stay home.
OSTA and the OCDSB post bus cancellations early in the day via social media and on their respective websites (linked above).
When buses are cancelled in the morning, schools remain open. However, buses are cancelled the entire day. *If you choose to bring your child to school, please be aware that you will need to return to pick them up at 3:45 p.m. Please avoid picking up and dropping off randomly throughout the day.
Please send your child with a lunch as all food programs are cancelled when the buses are cancelled. Food program would be rescheduled.
Snow days are fun! Enjoy them, however we try to minimize the caos administratively, help us to keep your children accounted for.
Cheers,
ALC
