Jeffco Schools Foundation is a nearly forty-year long partner to Jeffco Public Schools. As an independent nonprofit partner, Jeffco Schools Foundation has a long history of raising resources to provide academic, programmatic, and enrichment support to Jeffco students, educators, schools, and families. Jeffco Public Schools includes over 150 public schools, over 80,000 students, nearly 14,000 district and school staff, and spans a vast geography. One in three students are low income.
Closures & Delayed Start
We live in an area where snow is typical in the winter and unless the storm is extreme, school will not be canceled or delayed.
Many factors are taken into consideration when deciding to close schools, but the safety of students and staff is the number one consideration. Decision-makers and district staff work through the night and early morning to determine the best course of action and to clear the roads and our school sites.
Learn more about the decision making process and what to expect when a delay or closure is called by clicking on the drop-down menus below.
Jeffco introduced a two-hour delayed start protocol in 2019 that may be used during the school year. Read more below using the drop-downs, or click on this graphic to view the flyer.

DISTRICT SAFETY PLAN AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
The district's safety plan identifies security programs and measures that focus on prevention, intervention, and crisis response.
Review our Emergency Situations at School document which describes the types of emergencies that can occur in schools and how families should respond. (Also available in Russian, Spanish, Vietnamese.)
The School Safety Plan is designed to be used by school principals to create safe and respectful school environments.
