When this happens, what is the procedure at Auror Public Schools?
District personnel make every effort to protect students, provide for their comfort and ensure their safety. Sometimes power outages cause classrooms to get cold, but the district does not want to send students home unsupervised or to cold and dark houses. School principals can make the decision to send students home. If this happens the district notifies the news media and attempts to contact parents. Information is posted on the district’s web site and on the hotline at 303-326-1080. The district also must mobilize school buses, which can take time. Students will not be transported home without parent notification and contact.
