The Superintendent will confirm any change in normal operation with the Leadership Team. All closings or changes in normal operation are to be reported to a selected list of radio and television stations in the Anchorage area by the Executive Director for Public Affairs or the Director of Public Relations starting immediately after notification by the Superintendent. Notification of the selected radio stations should be completed approximately 20-30 minutes after Public Affairs is alerted. Subscription to an email list is also available to anyone who wants to receive email notification of school closures at the same time the media is notified. The Executive Director of Employee Relations will notify Substitute Dispatch and the Assistant Superintendent for Support Services will notify Student Nutrition of changes in normal operation.
Similar procedures are in effect on non-student days.
On in-service days, the Director of Transportation will determine the status of road conditions. The content of public affairs messages over the selected radio stations will be changed appropriately if the changes in normal operation occur on an in-service day.
