Tyler Dumas, Communications Specialist

Due to inclement weather, all after-school and evening activities for Friday, March 6 are canceled. This includes all athletic and extracurricular activities, and also impacts Leading Edge (our before and after school care program).

Buses will run as scheduled this afternoon, however, we realize that with the winter weather, some parents may choose to pick up their child early. Parents and guardians are encouraged to do what they feel is best for their family.

Early dismissal is not typical practice in D38 since we cannot ensure bus riders have a parent/guardian at home when they arrive. Additionally, many of our parents work in Colorado Springs and Denver, and may not always be available to pick up their student mid-day.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience. Weather calls are not always easy in Colorado, especially for our region.

Stay warm and safe on the roads this afternoon.
