Inclement Weather Policy
As a reminder, during inclement weather, our classrooms will continue to be staffed to accommodate children during our normal hours of operation, however, transportation may not be available.
To see if your center will have a change in its bus schedule, please listen to your local media stations for school district delays and cancellation updates, as this will only affect your child's transportation schedule.
❄️ If the local schools have a 2-hour delay or cancellation due to inclement weather, transportation will NOT be provided in the morning. However, if parents/guardians are able to bring their children to the center on days where there is only a 2-hour delay, CDC will transport them home at the end of the day.
❄️ Transportation will not be available in the morning or afternoon when schools are closed.If we do need to close a center, this information will be posted in your center's Facebook group and in the Parent's Corner.

Head Start Parent Committee
This is a great way to get involved in your child’s education! Each of our Head Start locations has its own Parent Committee to help our team gain valuable feedback on the program.
These groups are exclusive to parents of currently enrolled children at each center and have three primary responsibilities:
- To advise staff on creating program policies, activities, and services.
- To plan and participate in programs and activities for parents and staff.
- To assist with the recruitment and screening of Head Start employees based on the guidelines created by our Board of Directors.
All parents of Head Start children are automatically eligible to join Parent Committee and there’s a role for everyone!
If you are interested in joining, please contact your Family Engagement Specialist today!
