Snow, Inclement Weather, and Unexpected Closings Policy:

All official announcements regarding school closings, late openings, early closings, or emergencies are made on local radio and TV stations. The School of the Cathedral follows Baltimore County Public School System for inclement weather closing and delays. You will look for Baltimore County Public Schools, not The School of thee Cathedral as an Independent listing.

If Cathedral opens 1 hour late, the building will open at 8:30 am, school will begin at 8:55 am.
If Cathedral opens 2 hours late, the building will open at 9:30 am and school will begin at 9:55 a.m.

If the School of the Cathedral needs to announce an early closing, following Baltimore County Public School System, all after-school athletics, meetings, and clubs, including after-school care [Cathedral Extended Day CED] will be canceled:

1 hour early means that Cathedral will close at 1:50 p.m.
2 hours early means that Cathedral will close at 12:50 p.m.
3 hours early means that Cathedral will close at 11:50 a.m.

PLEASE NOTE: The only instance where The School of the Cathedral will NOT follow Baltimore County Public School System for a closing would be heat-related as we have an air-conditioned building.

Parents are expected to arrive to pick up their children promptly or to have made prior arrangements with a relative, neighbor, or friend to do so. If there is concern about road conditions, a child may leave for the day after the parent reports to the front desk. At all times, it is the parents’ decision to send children to school in adverse weather conditions.

Every effort will be made to communicate as thoroughly as possible with parents regarding early closing. An email and inclement weather text will both be sent out.

For safety reasons, we are occasionally asked to close our school when a large police/fire funeral or Archdiocesan special event is held in the Cathedral. We will notify parents of any such closings immediately.
