Inclement Weather Policy

In the case of snow, ice, or any other weather conditions that would warrant the closure of school, below is our policy:

When Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) close or go virtual due to weather conditions, Prince of Peace Lutheran School will also close. 

Emergency weather conditions that call for a change in school hours during the school day will be announced on all local radio stations and will also be included on the FCPS Website. We will also announce it on the front page of our website. If an early closing is announced prior to the end of our morning session, or prior to the end of our extended day program, we would like parents/childcare providers/carpools to pick up the children as soon as they hear of the early closing. 

If the weather is such that you feel uncomfortable driving your child to school, please don't bring them for that day. If your child is already at school and the weather seems to be getting worse, please come and pick up your child. We always would want you to be safe at home rather than trying to abide by school hours.

For any announced late opening (2-hour delay), the morning hour of our extended day program is canceled, our Kindergarten class will begin at 9:15am and our Preschool classes will begin at 9:30am.
