Snowy and inclement Weather Warnings

In preparation for the possibility of severe weather conditions, we would like to remind you that all schools in New Westminster School District will remain OPEN, if at all possible, during the colder and potentially snowier weather this winter may bring.
In rare instances where a school closure is warranted, we will try to announce the decision by 6:30 am at the latest.
There are a few different ways you can check to see what’s happening:
1. Phone calls and emails will be made to parents and caregivers who are part of the School Messenger system.
2. A notice will be posted on the District websites: https://newwestschools.ca/
3. You can follow our District’s social media channels, as notifications will be posted there:
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/newwestschools
Twitter: https://twitter.com/newwestschools
A list of school closures is also usually read on CKNW (AM 980) and CBC (AM 690)
