Inclement Weather and Emergency Closings
During inclement weather, HPELC generally follows Summit Charter School’s decision for a late opening or early departure. When HPELC’s early morning weather schedule is going to differ from Summit’s EVERY family will receive a phone call by 8:00 a.m. HPELP’s weather closings are also announced on WLOS channel 13, Highlands radio station 104.5 FM, and on our school answer machine (743-3056). In the event of early dismissal, parents will be contacted and informed of the school’s intentions. The staff will remain at school until every child has been picked up.
