2 Hour Delay of School for Tuesday, January 7

Based on winter weather reports that are predicting extremely low temperatures, and in an abundance of caution for our students, parents and employees, Richland School District Two will operate on a two-hour delay tomorrowTuesday, January 7.

A two-hour delay means: (1) students who ride the bus should report to their bus stops two hours later than usual; (2) car-riders should report to their schools two hours later than usual; and (3) employees who have not been notified otherwise, should report to work two hours later than usual. For example: schools that usually start at 8 a.m. will start at 10 a.m. instead.

Providing this information now should allow parents ample planning time. Parents and students are advised not to call the district office or their school for information on school cancellations or postponements, but to visit the district Web site at www.richland2.org, R2TV the district’s cable access channel on Time Warner and stay tuned to local media reports for updates.
