  11. Rainy Day Dismissal • “If it is raining (light or heavy), thundering/lightning we will make the decision for a rainy day dismissal around 2:50. If a rainy day dismissal is decided, we will post it on our website. This means that all students (bikers and walkers) will report to the gym where they may be picked up through the car rider line. After car riders are dismissed, any bikers or walkers that are remaining will be dismissed if the rain/thunder/lightning has subsided. Please note that these students may be home 30 minutes later than their usual arrival time since car riders are dismissed first.”
