There will be a snow day on Friday, January 21, 2010

The weather outside is frightful, indeed!  The Nursery School will be closed on Friday, January 21, 2010.

Every time we get a storm warning, we cringe and agonize about the decisions that await us!  As you know, our Snow Policy states that if the Pittsburgh Public Schools either cancel or have a two-hour delay, the SPCNS will be closed for the day.  This time there is no question that the storm is hitting us hard.  The vast majority of the schools in our area have already called at least a two-hour delay.  Please know that we do not take these decisions lightly.  We do not like to miss school, and understand that doing so causes disruptions to your family’s schedule.  Since we have no control over the weather and we are not gifted with foreseeing the future, we must rely on the sometimes imperfect system we have available to make an educated guess as to how the road conditions will be.  Please understand that we have your and your child’s safety at the forefront each and every day, especially when the weather promises to misbehave.

Please stay safe.  Let’s hope and pray that this winter weather will not last for long.  We look forward to seeing you next week.
