EMERGENCY CLOSINGS
Page 3
Since there are several more weeks of winter left, we thought it might be helpful
to give you the information on emergency closings one more time! The policies are
somewhat different for both campuses so please note the campus at which your child
attends.
LEARY SCHOOL OF VIRGINIA:
If Fairfax County Public Schools are closed, the Virginia campus will also be closed.
If Fairfax County Schools open late or dismiss early, Leary School of Virginia will
follow the same schedule. If school opens two hours late on Monday due to weather,
Leary School will dismiss at 3:00 instead of our usual 1:00.
For Prince George's County students who attend the Virginia campus:
- If Prince George's County Schools are opening later than Fairfax County Schools,
transportation for Prince George's County students will be at the later time;
- If Prince George's County Schools are opening earlier than Fairfax County Schools,
transportation for Prince George's County students will be at the later time;
- If there is an early dismissal, Prince George's County will transport at the
earlier dismissal time, whether it be Prince George's County or Fairfax County's;
- If Prince George's County Schools are closed and Fairfax County Schools are
open, Prince George's County will not provide transportation. Leary School of
Virginia will work hard with all of our families to coordinate and provide transportation
in such circumstances.
LEARY SCHOOL, PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY:
Students at the Oxon Hill campus follow the announcement for Prince George's County
Schools. If Prince George's County Schools are closed, Leary School, Prince George's
County, will also be closed. If Prince George's County Schools open late or dismiss
early, Leary School, Prince George's County, will follow the same schedule. As in
Virginia, if school opens two hours late on Monday due to weather, dismissal at Oxon
Hill will be at 2:30 instead of 12:30.
Information about closings and delays are broadcast on most local radio and television
stations. Families of students at the Virginia campus should listen for the announcement
for "Fairfax County Schools" while families of students at the Oxon Hill campus should
listen for the announcement for Prince George's County Schools" since Leary School
will not have a separate announcement. You can also check our answering machine message
at (703) 941-8150 for any weather or other important messages. Please make
sure you have discussed plans with your child in the event of delays or early closings.
