Snow Days: no school vs distance learning day

From the Superintendent’s Office

In case of inclement weather, NPS will shift to a “distance learning day” instead of cancelling in-person school. This day will count as a day of school and all students will be expected to log in to classes. Teachers will notify students and families via email of their schedule for the day with all relevant login/link information.

Please note: in the event of inclement weather, the district may still decide to cancel school instead of shifting to distance learning. You will need to carefully monitor the notification channels listed below for the plan for the day. The decision made will apply to ALL students whether they are hybrid or distance only students.

  • A “shift to distance learning” , school closings or delays will be communicated via phone call, text message, email, social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), NPS district website, and local television and radio stations. Please note: television and radio stations will only be used as a notification channel if school is cancelled or delayed.

  • To receive text messages, you must opt-in. To opt-in, please login to Aspen, and follow this path: Aspen > Family tab > Pick Student > Contact > Pick Parent. Then select “yes” for SMS messages in the drop-down box below your cell phone number.
