SCHOOL CLOSING INFORMATION

Barber National Institute Elizabeth Lee Black School programs will be ordered closed only in the event of a declared city-wide emergency or if prevailing weather conditions are considered so severe as to place children en route to schools in a clearly dangerous or unhealthy situation.

These conditions include:

• Whenever Erie School District is closed
• Impassable streets and/or sidewalks
• Extreme cold temperatures and/or gale-like winds
• Loss of utilities to school

If school is closed:

• Students, teachers, assistants will not report
• All twelve month employees will report
• Happy Hearts Childcare will be open (only closes when entire Institute closes)

All Institute activities will be canceled the day of the closing.

Days missed due to inclement weather will be rescheduled and you will be sent an updated calendar.

Parents are advised to use discretion in sending children to school, if they think weather conditions necessitates it. In such cases, absences will be excused absences.

School will not be dismissed early due to inclement weather except in the case of a declared city-wide emergency.

If schools are dismissed early due to emergency conditions, all employees will remain at work to assist children.

Whenever the Erie School District is closed, the Dr. Gertrude A. Barber Elizabeth Lee Black School will also be closed.
