Q    What about closings due to weather?

A  The Childcare Center follows District 77’s lead when making weather-related late starts/closures.  If District 77 announces a full day closure or late start in the morning, the childcare center will open one hour late at 7:30 am.  If the district announces early dismissal or is closed for the day, the childcare center will close one hour early at 4:30.  If Highway 60 is closed at 6:00 am, we will not open; however, weather and road conditions will be revaluated at 9:00 am and we will then make a final announcement for the day at that time.  Parents will be informed through childcare communication app.
