The most compelling reason for closing schools is safety of students and employees.
Red Wing Public Schools is committed to having students in school, but we know that weather – this is Minnesota, after all – and emergencies sometimes make canceling or altering the school necessary. The superintendent decides whether to delay school, cancel school or call an E-learning day based on the current circumstances. The district 2023-2024 district calendar allows for up to five E-learning days and three no-school or “snow” days.
Closure No. 1 | Closure No. 2 | Closure the week before winter or spring break | E-learning days allowed | No-instruction days allowed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
No instruction | E-learning | No instruction* | 5 | 3 |
*If all three no-instruction days have been used, then E-learning will take place.
