UPDATE 3 p.m. MONDAY:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to hazardous conditions, RISD schools and offices will be closed on Tuesday, January 16. Closure includes all games, activities, events and programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early morning temperatures and wind chills will be dangerous for students walking to school and at bus stops, RISD facilities staff anticipates the possibility of frozen or broken water pipes at some campuses, and some road conditions may be hazardous due to precipitation re-freezing overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A decision regarding school on Wednesday will be made after evaluating campus and travel conditions on Tuesday evening. RISD stakeholders can stay informed by monitoring risd.org and district social media accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any closure decision will be shared on those platforms and also sent directly to parents, staff and students, along with news media outlets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UPDATE 8 a.m. MONDAY:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monday, January 15 is already a student\/staff holiday, however, some practices and student clinics were scheduled today, and those have all been cancelled. No decision has been made about school on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Original post<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inclement Weather Preparation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As it gets colder and the potential for inclement weather increases, please ensure your contact information on file with RISD is up to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the event of inclement weather that may require classes be delayed or canceled, parents and employees will be notified directly by telephone, email, and text message at about 5:00 a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, parents can check the RISD homepage, the district Facebook page<\/a> or the district X (Twitter) feed<\/a>. The district also notifies local media outlets of closures or delays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parents, employees, and students should assume a normal school day<\/strong> unless a telephone message is received or the RISD website or media outlets indicate closure or delay. <\/strong>RISD does not send direct notifications stating that school is open and operating on a normal schedule.<\/p>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
