District winter weather procedures: Know before it snows

As temperatures drop and we start to see snow in the forecast, it's important for parents, guardians, students and staff to know the district's severe weather procedures for announcing school closures, delayed openings or cancellations.

All schools in the Surrey School District will remain OPEN, except under extreme circumstances. Only cancellations, closures or delayed school openings will be announced. Except under extreme circumstances, no announcement will be made that schools are open.

Any districtwide closure or delayed school opening will be announced on the Surrey Schools website and individual school websites, as well as communicated on the district's Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts. 

An announcement will be made by 7 a.m. at the latest, based on the best information available at that time.

Make sure you follow Surrey Schools on social media and book mark the district website!

** Student safety is our first priority and a shared responsibility. As always, parents and guardians may choose to make other arrangements if they don't feel it is safe to travel to school. Students will not be penalized for such absences. **
