Dear Purchase Line School District Families:

The purpose of this letter is to communicate the district’s plan for inclement weather.
Purchase Line School District will use both remote learning days and traditional snow
days/school cancellations during the 2022-23 school year.

Since Purchase Line School District has the ability to conduct remote learning, we can
now implement a remote learning day in lieu of canceling school for weather related
emergencies. Students will remain at home on remote learning days and engage in
remote instruction. Remote learning days will count as a regular day of school and
students are expected to complete the educational requirements, including attendance
and completion of assignments.

Traditional snow days/school cancellations can also be used, and those days will be
made up later in the school year. In addition, two-hour delays and early dismissals will
be used by the district depending on the circumstances.

Information on remote learning days, snow days/school cancellations, two-hour delays,
and early dismissals will be communicated through SchoolMessenger, our primary
means of notification. Information will also be relayed through ARIN Intermediate Unit’s
SchoolCast, EZ Text, and local television stations.
Sincerely,

 

Shawn L. Ford
Superintendent
