Inclement Weather Procedures


NAPS does not follow decisions by the Anne Arundel County Public Schools regarding school closings, late openings, or re-openings after a closing due to inclement weather. 

Designated board members make the decisions regarding the opening and closing of school. 

The decision will be posted on the NAPS website (www.napschool.com) no later than 6 a.m. 

Do not rely on the NAPS telephone answering machine to provide closure information. 

If a storm arrives after school has begun for the day, check the school website regarding early closing. Even without an early closing, parents are welcome to pick up their children early if they are concerned about driving conditions worsening before regular dismissal time. 

Extended-care program in the event of school closings: 

 All-day school closing: The extended-care program will not be available. 

 Late opening: No before-school care • Half-day classes will be held as usual. 

 Early dismissal: After-school care will be canceled.
