Several schools throughout the Flagstaff area closed Wednesday due to a winter storm set to impact much of northern Arizona.
The following schools cancelled classes for the day:
- Flagstaff Unified School District
- BASIS Flagstaff
- Flagstaff Arts and Leadership Academy
- Flagstaff Junior Academy
- All Montessori School of Flagstaff campuses
- Northland Preparatory Academy
- Williams Unified School District
- Coconino Community College
Northern Arizona University will operate as scheduled as of Wednesday morning.
Most private and charter schools generally follow the lead of the larger district in the area. However, students, parents and staff should check their school’s websites and social media for specific information.
FUSD Communications Director Madison Pompeo stated that school officials consider "weather forecasts, road conditions and closures, access to FUSD parking areas and sites, transportation, impact on instruction and scheduled activities and timelines for mobilizing communication" when deciding on class delays or cancellations.
