Inclement Weather Policy

Home Student Life Athletics About Us Faculty/Staff

Parents of White County Students,

It is important that we have procedures in place to deal with inclement weather and make the best use of the remaining days in the school calendar, without having to extend the school year. 

Please be aware of the following procedures: 

BUS DRIVER’S DISCRETION—(Applies to all bus routes)  It is the bus driver’s decision as to whether he/she can navigate the route without endangering the safety of the children.  Students who ride a bus on a regular basis but do not receive bus service on this day will not be counted absent.

SNOW ROUTE---(Applies to Buses 5, 10, 16, 20 and 35 only)  If parents can safely deliver their children to BonDeCroft School, buses will wait until 7:30 A.M. to transport students to White County Middle School and White County High School.  Students will return to BonDeCroft School when school is dismissed.  Students who ride a bus on a regular basis but do not receive bus service on this day will not be counted absent. 

Not all of the Nashville News stations allow school closings to carry additional instructions such as “bus driver’s discretion” or “snow route.”  Local radio and the school messenger system will provide these instructions.
