In an effort to improve procedures for dealing with hazardous weather situations, the administration of Eagle County School District has developed the following guidelines. We hope they will be of assistance on these occasions.
Television Channels:
KWGN – WB2, KMGH – 7, KUSA – 9, KCNC – 4, KVBA –TV8, FOX 31, ECO-TV–18
Radio Stations:
KTUN -95.3, KKCH – 92.3 or 92.7, KSKE 101.7, KZYR – 97.7, KQSE- 102.5, KOA 850AM
In the event that a decision is reached to cancel school bus transportation, every effort will be made to have such information on the air by 6:00 AM. If no announcement is made on the stations, assume that school buses WILL run and no other adjustment is planned. Information will also be available by calling 328-6321.
It is the responsibility of parents/guardians to make contingency plans for the care of their children in the event that school is canceled or students are released early for whatever reason.
It is suggested that in very cold weather children be warmly dressed, and are instructed to return home if the bus is 15 minutes late or more.
