Inclement Weather Procedures
AXIS International Academy Preschool-6th Grade Inclement Weather Procedures
School Closure, Delayed Start, and Early Release
- School Closure: School is closed for the entire school day.
- Delayed Start: School begins two hours later at 10:00am, drop off is 9:50-10:00am, (NO Before Care) and school ends on time at 3:00.
- Early Release: School closes early due to impending severe weather (NO After Care or Enrich).
Although we are not a charter school authorized by Poudre School District, we are located in the PSD geographical boundary.
- If PSD closes, AXIS will close.
- If PSD has a delayed start, AXIS will close or have a delayed start.
- If PSD has an early release, AXIS will have an early release.
PSD has a very thorough decision-making process; therefore, if they decide to delay or close, we will always do the same. That being said, there may be an occasion when AXIS closes or has a delayed start when PSD does not.
Decision Considerations
At AXIS we take these decisions very seriously, and we put the safety of our students, families, and staff first. We understand the challenges these actions impart on families who have to find care for their children. Because of our location in the Poudre School District, this organization influences the decision-making of AXIS relevant to inclement weather decisions.
Safety First!
Remember that as the parent or guardian, you have the ultimate responsibility for the safety and well-being of yourself and your children. You can always decide not to send your children to school on a snowy day if you feel it is unsafe. AXIS is flexible with late arrivals due to weather and will always excuse a student absence when called in by a parent or guardian due to weather. Please give yourself extra time driving and stay safe.
