Reminder: Inclement Weather Protocols:

As we move into the winter and spring months, we encourage all families to periodically review our inclement weather protocols on the district website. Anytime our community experiences inclement weather, our operations and leadership teams are driving roads throughout the evening and early morning, and in communication with various city and town officials, closely monitoring weather conditions. Based on road conditions and weather forecasts, we will make one of three decisions: 

  1. To keep a normal in-person school schedule
  2. Delay the start of school by two hours 
  3. Shift to a shortened online learning day

Our first priority, as long as it is deemed safe by our team in consultation with other municipality officials, will be in-person learning.

As a reminder, when the district remains open to in-person learning, but you believe that weather conditions in your specific area are unsafe or otherwise problematic for your student to attend school, please feel free to contact your school’s attendance clerk to obtain an excused absence for your student. If weather conditions cause you to keep your student at home, they will be able to make up any missed schoolwork without penalty.

    • Just enter your pickup & drop-off addresses in the RIDE Longmont app.
    • Meet your driver at a “virtual bus stop” (a convenient corner near the addresses you entered).
    • Hop in. It’s that easy!
    • RIDE Longmont will be available Monday to Saturday 6 am – 8 pm, Sunday 9 am – 5 pm. Each ride costs just $2 or less. Students and seniors ride for just $1 per trip. ALL rides are FREE through January 9, 2025! Want to learn more? Head to city.ridewithvia.com/Longmont or call 970-538-9097.
