It looks like the meteorologists were right on the mark this time. Claremore Public Schools will be closed again on Wednesday, February 19th, due to the continued winter weather. While we always strive to keep schools open, safety remains our top priority. After-school activities, athletics, and competitive events are canceled. Coaches and program directors will provide updates on specific activities through Rooms on your CPS mobile app. This will be an official “snow day,” so your assignment includes being safe, staying warm, and making a memory! Make it “A Great Day To Be A Zebra.” District leaders will continue to monitor the forecast and evaluate conditions, and decisions will be made on a day-by-day basis. Updates will be on all CPS platforms (Website, Mobile App, Facebook, & Email) and local TV stations. Download the app on Android or iPhone. Make sure your contact information is up to date on your parent portal. Winter weather frequently asked questions: https://www.claremore.k12.ok.us/article/643291
