As we head into the winter months, we want to remind families to stay informed and prepared for weather conditions that may impact school operations, including potential school closures.
One of the easiest ways to stay connected is by downloading the SD62 mobile app, which provides timely updates and important district information right at your fingertips.
We encourage all families to download the mobile app to receive important notifications about weather-related school closures and other district updates.
In the event of a school closure due to inclement weather, the district will also communicate with families through the following channels:
- Email: Notifications will be sent directly to families.
- District website: Updates will be posted at www.sd62.bc.ca.
- Facebook: Information will be shared on the district's Facebook page.
- Local media: School closure information will be provided to local media outlets.
While we hope for minimal disruptions this winter, being prepared and knowing where to find reliable information can help families plan ahead.
Please note: The district no longer uses automated phone calls to notify families of school closures. With the increasing use of cell phones and spam or call-blocking features, phone notifications have become less reliable. Families are encouraged to download the SD62 mobile app and ensure their email contact information is up to date with their school.
