How families hear

“We will also use our website, social media, and local news outlets as needed. Please follow our official Facebook and Twitter accounts for accurate information.”Student Safety and Security (Emergency Closure Guidelines)
Remote learning days
Tooele has remote learning days in its winter plan.
“Teachers will be available on remote learning days via email and connect with students through services like Canvas, Zoom, or Google Meet.”Source
Making up a lost day
Missed days must be made up under Utah law; no dates set.
“As Utah law requires missed days of instruction to be made up, options like a delayed start and virtual learning are considered before completely closing schools.”Source

How Utah counts a lost day
Utah requires at least 180 school days of educational services. No fixed count; a district that closes for snow and would fall short of 180 days can ask the State Superintendent for a waiver, granted without Board approval if it built contingency days into its calendar.
