Recently, the Omaha Public School District, along with Westside/District 66 School District, added a 2-hour delay (10:15 am late start; doors open at 10:00 am) to their weather protocol. This schedule will be used when weather is problematic in the early mornings on school days but when the weather is expected to improve later in the morning, and the roads have time to be cleared. If the Omaha Public Schools and Westside/District 66 announce a late start, the Omaha Catholic Schools will follow suit and also announce a 2-hour delay (10:15 am late start; doors open at 10:00 am). Lunch will be available for Grades K-8 from Westside Nutrition Services, albeit a later time.
If these announcements are made, St. Pius X / St. Leo School will send confirmation of any weather-related closings or delays to our families. Please note that on any delayed start day, there would be no morning extended care offered.
Additionally, please note that with a 2-Hour Delay/Late Start there would also be no morning Pre-K classes on that day.
Lastly, please know that you can always do what you think is best for your child(ren). If we have a full day of school or a late start on a day that you think is too dangerous or stressful for your family to get to school, you should do what you think is best for your child(ren) and we respect that. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at 402-551-6667 or at cory.sepich@spsl.net.
