Snow and Emergency Closures
Generally MCS will follow Bainbridge Island School closures as announced on most major radio and T.V. stations with the following considerations:
• If Bainbridge schools are closed, MCS will be closed.
• If Bainbridge schools are running 1 hour late, all morning classes will begin at 9:40.
• If Bainbridge schools are 2 hours late, MCS will cancel morning classes; the afternoon classes will meet at the usual time; no lunch program
• In the event we must make a decision other than the above, you will be notified by your room representative. Please be sure to advise him/her if your phone number has changed.
