Emergency Closing From School

School closings will be announced through PowerSchool Messenger. Please refer to local news outlets for school closings also.

The decision to close school due to bad weather is based on the evaluation of road conditions and pending weather.

During the tornado season the following guidelines are used in the Caledonia School District:

A TORNADO WATCH means that conditions exist for severe weather to develop. Students are NOT dismissed early due to a TORNADO WATCH, but will be dismissed at the regular dismissal time at the end of the school day.

A TORNADO WARNING means that a tornado or severe thunderstorm has actually been sighted or strongly indicated by radar used by the Weather Service Office. Students will be immediately directed to a designated safe shelter areas in the building, and will NOT be sent home until the Tornado Warning has been lifted by the Weather Service.
