WEATHER CLOSINGS During adverse weather conditions, administrators monitor the situation and decide when the school will close or follow abbreviated hours. The decision is posted on the school’s website and social media as soon as it is made, so please do not call or message school officials or administrative offices.
The school also calls, emails, and texts families during school emergencies and closings. These emergency notifications are called Owls Alerts. For us to contact you, we need accurate contact information and your permission to text you.
If you need to update your contact information, go to the Profile Update page of our website. You must also text "YES" to 87569 to allow us to text you.
The school responds to severe weather and other emergencies with a practiced procedure of securing students as quickly and as safely as possible in the most secure environment that the facilities offer.
In any real emergency, students are not to leave campus without permission from the administration. Buildings are safer than vehicles during these events, and the driving lanes on campus must be as free as possible for emergency vehicles or for the orderly dismissal from school once conditions improve according to the National Weather Service.
OTHER EMERGENCY PROCEDURES Throughout the year, the school holds emergency training sessions and drills. Manuals are posted in each classroom providing emergency contact information and procedures for emergencies.
The MUS Safety Team meets throughout the year to update emergency procedures, to schedule faculty and staff training, and to schedule school drills.
