Closings & Delays
Closings and Delays
School may be closed, delayed, or dismissed early due to inclement weather or other emergency situations. Decisions to cancel school are not taken lightly, and any changes to our regular schedule are made by the superintendent after consultation with the director of transportation and other related personnel. ADM’s number one priority is ensuring the safety of all students. A decision to close or delay school will normally be made no later than 5:30 AM.
How Parents Are Notified
ADM uses the SchoolMessenger alert system to directly notify parents of weather and emergency related delay, dismissal, or cancellation decisions. Parents are notified by email, phone, and text message. Messages are also sent to area television stations and displayed on the school website.
Parents will be notified of weather or emergency related delay, dismissal, or cancellation decisions by phone, email, and text message.
Area television stations and Raccoon Valley Radio will be notified of weather or emergency related closures, delays, and early dismissals.
The district website will include a banner notification of weather or emergency related school cancellations, delays, or early dismissals as soon as the decision has been made.
What Contact Information is Used for SchoolMessenger Notifications?
The ADM SchoolMessenger alert system uses contact information entered by parents and guardians into the Infinite Campus Student Information System. To update contact information in Infinite Campus, log in to the Infinite Campus Portal or contact your building office.
