Emergency and Inclement Weather Delayed Start

We use the following guidelines to make decisions regarding weather-related school closures:

Delayed start means:

  • There is no morning KPrep.
  • Kindergarten to grade 12 will operate on a delay, starting one hour later than the usual start time if the delay is on a Monday and two hours after the usual start time Tuesday–Friday.


A mid-day weather closure after school has begun for the day means that parents will be notified to pick up their students as soon as they are able. Childcare (early learning centers), Cougar Club Childcare, and Recreation activities will also CLOSE.

The FlashAlert website automatically updates the following local area radio and television stations of our schools’ status:

  • KOMO AM 1000, KIRO AM 710, KCMS FM 105, KCIS AM 630
  • KING-5 TV News and “Today” show
