CISD Inclement Weather Procedures
The cold weather is here and CISD wants to make sure all parents, faculty and staff are aware of its procedures during bad weather. Should bad weather occur, officials will try to provide details about school closings or delays before 6 a.m. The following is a list of sources used to provide such announcements:
Connect-ED Notification System - Weather-related school closings and delays will be communicated to employees and parents via the district's emergency telephone notification system - Connect-ED. The system can call the emergency contact numbers (up to six for each student and staff member) simultaneously. The caller identification will show the school number as 817-949-5190. To update your emergency contact information, please contact your child's school with the information so that it can be changed in the Skyward database.
Radio & Television Announcements - Official announcements during inclement weather will still be made on WBAP News Talk 820 AM and on KXAS Channel 5, KDFW Fox 4 News, KTVT Channel 11 and WFAA Channel 8.
District Website & Cable Channels - When the situation permits, the district will also post closings to the district's website and on CISD Cable TV 30 (Charter) and 33 (Verizon FiOS) in Southlake. However, weather conditions sometimes prevent school officials from relying on these communication methods.
Parents and employees should use messages from the Connect-ED telephone notification system as the primary means for learning about weather-related closures and delays. The public can still turn to radio and television reports as a back-up or alternative way to confirm notification. Sometimes, CISD opens on a delayed schedule due to bad weather. However, school is rarely dismissed early for bad weather conditions because of working parents and the safety concern with sending children home without adult supervision. CISD will make every attempt to broadly communicate weather-related decisions using the Connect-ED emergency telephone notification system and Dallas-Fort Worth media.
Questions about our procedures may be directed to the Communications & Marketing Office at 817-949-7080.
