Skyline Winter Weather Plan

Canceling school due to extreme winter weather is a difficult decision that is not taken lightly. We understand the stability that school offers students including meals and the hardship that finding childcare can cause for some families. However, the safety and well-being of the students and staff of Skyline is our top priority.

We will continually monitor the forecast from the National Weather Service and consult with our Bus Transportation Company, to make the best decision. We will notify families as soon as a decision is reached, but prior to 6:00am.

Communicating with families in the event of school closing, we will notify families via:

  • Phone tree
  • Skyline website
  • Skyline Facebook Account
  • TV weather alerts for Channels WCCO and KARE11
