When the school system administrative offices in Danbury are closed, you may check for closing and delay messages by calling (336) 593-8146. Press one (1) at the prompt for information on decisions regarding closing and/or delays.

Notes
The Superintendent or designee will be the only people to dismiss, delay, or close schools.
The Superintendent or designee will send one phone message to all stakeholders in the district.
Schools should only send out phone messages if there is a need to send school level information (i.e. ACT being rescheduled, etc).
Early dismissal for weather will be based on a staggered schedule
For example a 1 hour, 2 hour or 3 hour early dismissal may be implemented.
