The winter months often bring weather changes which impact student transportation. Listed below is
information related to inclement weather.
Many elementary students (Fairview, Hillcrest, Lannoye and Sunnyside) are picked up and dropped off
by a bus that runs a middle school/high school route first. In this case, the second route bus may be
running a bit behind schedule on days when the weather is bad.
Whenever roads require slow bus travel, please be aware that your children will be arriving home later
than the usual time. It may be as much as a half-hour or more later. We ask that you be patient in
dealing with this situation.
Should you have a need to contact the school concerning a late bus, dial the appropriate after-hours
number as follows:
Glenbrook:
Lannoye:
Hillcrest
822-6100
865-6400
272-6900
Fairview:
899-6300
Sunnyside:

SCHOOL CLOSING INFORMATION
Information regarding the status of school closing, late start or early dismissal can be obtained by
listening to the radio or television. Announcements will be forwarded for broadcast by the radio and
television stations as soon as decisions are reached before school or during the day as conditions
warrant.
Tune your radio to WTAQ (1360 AM), WQLH (98.5 FM), WDUZ (1400 AM), WNFL (1440 AM),
WNCY (100.3 FM), WIXX (101.1 FM), WROE (94.3 FM), WOCO (1260 AM, 107.1 FM), WLYD
(99.7 FM), WOGB (103.1 FM) or WTCH (960 AM, 99 FM) for any weather closing information.
We will also have this information on WBAY-TV (Channel 2), WFRV-TV (Channel 5), WGBA-TV
(Channel 26), WACY-TV (Channel 32), and FOX-TV (WLUK– Channel 11) for those who are
hearing impaired.
As an additional option, information will also be available on our District website at
www.pulaskischools.org
Every effort is made to make a decision regarding school by 6:00 a.m.
EMERGENCY/ WEATHER RELATED LATE START
When a two-hour delay is called, routes will run two hours later than regularly scheduled.
Emergency/Weather Related Late Start / Early Dismissal Schedule
EMERGENCY/WEATHER RELATED EARLY DISMISSAL
When an early dismissal is called, we will follow the drop-off schedule and dismiss the middle school, high
school, Glenbrook and BVM students and then the elementary school students.
Early dismissals require communication to determine where your child should be dropped off. We ask that if
you select an emergency drop-off site for your child, you keep it in your neighborhood and on the same bus
route. Please notify your building principal, in writing, by December 1 if you wish an emergency drop-off site.
Please do not call the schools to determine if they will be dismissing early because all telephone lines are needed
to notify bus drivers/contractors and to contact the radio stations, weather bureau and other agencies.
EARLY CHILDHOOD AND PEEP
1. When the district is canceled for the day, the early childhood and PEEP programs are canceled.
2. The morning session of early childhood and PEEP are canceled when there is a late start.
3. The afternoon session of early childhood and PEEP are canceled when there is an early dismissal.
Thank you for your cooperation in all weather-related circumstances. We appreciate working with you and your
children. If you have any questions, please contact your building principal or the Transportation Office.
