Wondering About Winter Weather?
When winter weather hits, schools may be closed or delayed or buses may use snow routes due to snow and ice. The school district decides early in the morning whether there is a need to change the school schedule or bus routes. These decisions are made districtwide and are the same for every 4J school.
How to find out if there is a change:
- Email or text message sent to you from the district
- Check the district website at 4j.lane.edu
- Follow 4J on social media: Facebook and Instagram
- Tune in to local radio and television news stations
If there is a school closure or other change, the school district will announce it before 6:30 a.m. If schools and buses are on their regular schedule, there will NOT be an announcement.
Parents of students who ride school buses that have alternate snow routes have been informed of what to do. Snow route information is available on the snow routes page.
If school is in session, families are encouraged to consider road conditions in their areas and make their own decisions based on safety. Parents’ individual decisions about school attendance will be honored.
