How Boyertown calls a snow day
How families hear
By text message, email, phone call, the district website, social media, radio and local TV.
“Because the distribution of messages through IC Messenger can take some time due to the volume of messages being sent, we will post a pop-up message to all district homepages and update the district's Facebook page and Instagram.”Emergency Delays/Closings/Dismissals
Every closed day is made up
On the 2025 to 2026 calendar each day Boyertown closes for weather comes back later in the year, as set out under making up a lost day.
“There are no "Snow days" built into the 2025-2026 district calendar.”Source
Flexible Instructional Days
Boyertown has Flexible Instructional Days in its winter plan, up to 5 a year.
“The District can use up to five (5) FIDs per school year.”Source
Making up a lost day
Days closed beyond the FID allowance are made up by shortening spring break or extending the school year; no dates are named.

More 4 inch school mornings than 73% of the 490 Pennsylvania districts with a station record.
- Biggest day 10.5 in on March 22, 2018
- Snowiest winter 2017 to 2018, 40.4 in
- 6 in mornings 0.8 a winter

Measured at a NOAA weather station 6.5 miles away. Mornings are the 7 am snow reading on a weekday from December 1 through March 31, over the ten winters from 2016 to 2017 through 2025 to 2026, from NOAA GHCN Daily.
How Pennsylvania counts a lost day
Pennsylvania requires either 180 days, or hours: 900 for kindergarten through grade 6 and 990 for grades 7 to 12, as the district chooses. The state forgives no days; districts are expected to build make-up days into the calendar for closures beyond any Flexible Instructional Days.
