attendance emergency procedures and closings

Inclement Weather
The School generally follows the Anne Arundel County Public Schools for closings, late openings and early dismissals when there is inclement weather. The School’s phone message and website are updated when changes to the school day schedule occur.
Inclement Weather Alternate Schedule
When the county schools experience a delayed opening, they often indicate that there will be “no morning Pre-Kindergarten.” St. Anne’s School does not follow this practice, because if our school is open, it is open to all students. Therefore, we have devised the following Alternate Schedule that is followed when there is a delayed opening.
- One Hour Delayed Opening
- Before school care opens at 8:15 a.m. for registered students only in Prekindergarten - Eighth Grades. Preschool before school care begins at 8:15 in the classroom.
- All a.m. classes arrive one hour late, and dismiss at the usual time. If you are not registered for before care, plan to arrive between 8:50 and 9:10 a.m.
- Two Hour Delayed Opening
- Before school care opens at 9:15 a.m. for registered students only in Prekindergarten – Eighth Grades.
- All classes will open at the same time – Early Childhood, Lower and Middle School divisions. Students may arrive beginning at 9:50 for 10:15 start time.
- Preschool 10:15 a.m. to noon. Before care for Preschool begins at 9:15 for two hour delayed opening.
- Prekindergarten 10:15 a.m. to noon.
- Kindergarten 10:15 a.m. to 3:10 p.m.
- Afternoon Enrichment Program noon – 3:10 p.m.
