Unscheduled Days

For those days most commonly known in New England as “Snow Days”, announcements will be made on:

You will also receive a call from the school’s automated Alert Now System. This is a recorded message, available between 6:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. at 781-861-6500, which will state if school is or is not in session. Please do not listen for individual town closings.

If Minuteman High School is open, closed, or delayed, we are open, closed, or delayed accordingly. For example: if there is a two (2) hour delay, we open at 9:00 a.m. rather than 7:00 a.m.

If Minuteman has an unscheduled dismissal, CCA will close one hour after Minuteman High School closes.

Reminder: There is no tuition credit given for SNOW DAYS. If any other emergency occurs, school may be closed or we may need to release the children early. Please be sure that a parent or other trusted adult can be contacted at all times in case of unforeseen circumstances.

Communication

We use Tadpoles software to communicate with parents. Each week you will receive a curriculum sheet through Tadpoles of the themes and activities we plan on doing. You will also get a monthly newsletter and calendar.

Please understand we can not have long conversation at the door due to supervision of CCA.

Emergency Procedures

Minuteman High School follows fire drills and emergency procedure regulated by the state. We follow the same system as the high school. Parents will be notified that day if we have had a drill.
