School Closings

When Greenwich Public Schools are closed due to inclement weather, school buses will not run and Sacred Heart will close. Upper, Middle and Lower School class representatives will be called by the division head to initiate a phone chain for each class when there is a delayed opening or cancellation.

When Greenwich Public Schools have a delayed opening, Sacred Heart, along with other Fairchester Independent Schools, has the option to close or to determine our own time for a delayed opening.

Listen to the radio or TV for information regarding delayed busing in your area.

For early School closings in case of inclement weather, please listen to the radio in order to leave the switchboard open. The School will also use the Parental E-mail Communication System to notify parents of the School's decision to close.

For emergency closings, the School will use the phone chain as well as the Parental E-mail Communication System to notify parents of the School's decision to close.

Parents Please Note: Parental permission must be given for changes in students' travel plans. No Lower or Middle School student will be allowed to leave on a school bus unless we are assured that there will be someone at home to receive the child. If possible, please call your child's appropriate division office to provide this permission.
