2 Hour Delay Policy

Today the Topsfield Public Schools will open on a 2 hour delay schedule.  Our preschool classes are closed, however, our extended day program will open at 11 am. Below is our handbook's policy regarding cancellations.

Announcements regarding the delay or closing of school due to snow or inclement weather will be made on local television stations.  Parents who sign up for the Connect-Ed parent notification system will also receive a phone call and/or e-mail with this information.  The preschool will be closed when the Topsfield Public Schools are closed. If there is a one hour delayed opening, the morning preschool program (including morning extended day) will run from 10-12 pm.  If there is a two hour delayed opening, the morning preschool sessions will be cancelled, and the extended day program will open at 11am. There will be no early morning drop off for the extended day program when there is a delayed opening.  Should school be dismissed early due to unsafe weather conditions we will also cancel the Preschool Extended Day Program.  Parents will receive a call through the Black-Board Connect/ Connect Ed phone system notifying them of any such cancellations.
