Kindergarten through 8th Grade:
In case of inclement weather, Saint Timothy Catholic School follows Fairfax County’s announcements of “no school”, “delayed opening”, or “early closing.” Families will be notified via email and the School Messenger System. If school is closed or closes early, all after school activities are cancelled.
Follow the link below to check the status of school closings. Additionally, Fairfax County will send email alerts regarding delayed openings, closings and early closings to subscribers of their “Keep in Touch” e-mail notification system, also available through this link: Fairfax County School Closings Announcements.
On the rare occasion when we are scheduled for an 12:00 dismissal and there is cause for an alteration in schedule, the following procedure applies: if Fairfax County announces a one hour delayed opening, we will have school from 9:15 am to 12:00; if Fairfax County announces a two hour delayed opening we will not have school.
If Fairfax County schools are having a scheduled holiday, and we are not, please check our web site and WMAL radio station for instructions on delayed opening, closing and early closing. If you are unable to obtain accurate information, please find a friend, etc. who will be able to contact you. We cannot contact individual parents.
If Fairfax County announces that after school activities are cancelled, Saint Timothy after school activities (band, choir, sports events) will be cancelled. See the Aftercare Program page for policies relating to the After School Care Program. If schools are closed for the day, all after school activities are also closed.
