Contingency Planning for
Inclement Weather
As we head into winter, we like to review our contingency procedures in the event of cancellations or delays due to weather.
Any weather-related delays or closings will be communicated to the Brebeuf community via email, text alert, Brebeuf's Twitter account, and through local news channels.
In case of the need for a weather-related delay, we will use our 2-hour delayed opening schedule, with the first class beginning at 10:30 a.m.
In case of the need for weather-related school closing, the first time this takes place, we have the calendar flexibility to take one true "snow day," with no asynchronous assignments given online. Any further closings beyond the first one will be asynchronous learning days. On those days, students will receive assignments to complete at home via Google Classroom for each of their classes that would have met that day. We will always communicate about asynchronous learning day expectations via email to students and parents any time they come up.
We hope this helps everyone know what to expect, but we also appreciate your flexibility in the event that things don't always go as planned.
Thank you!

Our students got to enjoy another De-Stress Fest as a fun way to unwind and celebrate the end of the semester! There were therapy dogs, kitten visits, fun activities and crafts, and plenty of sweet treats to give everyone a morale boost in preparation for final exams. We'd like to give a very special thank you to all those who made it possible, including the Counseling Office, Mothers Association, Dads Club, and faculty/staff!
