❄️ Winter Weather? Say it isn’t snow! ❄️
We’re not trying to jinx it, but with the forecast looking a little flaky this weekend, it’s a good time to brush up on how we’ll share school closure and delay info.

1️. CHSD App & Website – Check here first! We’ll post updates as soon as decisions are made.
2️. Text, Call & Email Alerts – Make sure your contact info is up-to-date so you don’t miss that early-morning ping.
3️. Social Media – Follow our school Facebook pages for official closure and delay posts.
4️. Local TV & Radio – Tune in to 9&10, Fox 33, NBC 25/Fox 66, ABC 12, ABC 7&4, WNEM TV 5, Fox 17, Wood TV 8, WZZM 13, or your favorite local stations (102.3, 100.9, 95.3, 105.3, 94.5).
