Decisions on schedule changes are made after careful study of the best information available from weather services and Charlottesville Public Works. Safety is our first concern.

- Morning announcements will be made by 5:30 a.m. whenever possible. Sometimes we can announce a decision the evening before.
- Early-release decisions will be made by 10:30 a.m. whenever possible.
- Via phone, email, or text using ParentSquare. All staff, families, and CHS students automatically receive notifications.
  - Community members, partners, or local organizations who wish to receive these weather-related announcements can join a ParentSquare community group.
- CCS homes page: charlottesvilleschools.org.

- Through local TV and radio stations and their websites.
- All activities are cancelled unless otherwise indicated.
- Offices will open on a delayed schedule.
