🚨 INCLEMENT WEATHER ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

West Fargo Public Schools administration has been reviewing the forecast and associated wind chill warnings for tomorrow, Friday, January 7. Multiple sources are forecasting a windchill of -45 or lower, including a forecasted -51 windchill during the timeframe when buses would be picking up students. In consideration of these extreme temperatures, West Fargo Public Schools is erring on the side of caution and cancelling school and activities for tomorrow, Friday, January 7.

These extremely cold temperatures are considered dangerous to anyone that is outside for longer than 5-10 minutes. With consideration of the number of our students that utilize our bus services and those that walk to school each day, we cannot, in good conscience, expect families to make a decision about placing their students in such dangerous conditions. The length of time that students would be standing at bus stops or walking to school has the potential to exceed that 5-10 minute timeframe.

In addition to the danger to students, we would be remiss to not acknowledge the impact these extreme temperatures have on other key operational areas in our district, including consistent heating of our facilities and the safe operation of our buses.

Since this is an emergency closure, there will be no virtual learning for students.

Based on our calendar for the 2021-22 school year, the district will meet the required number of academic minutes without having to make up tomorrow’s cancellation. This means that there will be NO CHANGES to any future breaks planned in our calendar because of cancelling school for tomorrow.

Staff, please watch your email for an additional communication regarding expectations for tomorrow.
