Philadelphia School District Inclement Weather Information

ROXBOROUGH -- With talk of a potentially significant winter storm headed for the Mid-Atlantic this week, here’s a look at the Philadelphia School District’s snow day provisions and inclement weather procedures for Roxborough-area schools:

The last day of school is tentatively scheduled for June 22.

Snow make up days, if necessary, will come from spring break or will be added on at the end of the year.

If there is a delayed opening, schools will open two hours late.

Early Dismissals are at 11:45 a.m.

Inclement weather announcements will be made by KYW 1060AM.

The district runs a hotline which provides regular updates on the status of school and office closures, and is a very efficient way, in partnership with the District’s Web site, to check the status of closures. The Information Hotline can be reached at 215-400-INFO (4636).

In the event that schools are closed on a school day due to inclement weather, a decision will be made in each instance as to whether administrative offices, including Regional Offices, will be open or closed.

Unless it is announced that administrative offices are closed, assume they will be open.
