How D.C. Everest calls a snow day
How families hear
By the district website, email, text message, social media, local TV and radio.
“If students are at school and the schools need to be closed because of bad weather, families will be notified by email or text. In addition, the district will share the information on its social media channels, website and through local TV and radio stations.”Weather-related Closures
A 2 hour delay
On a delay morning every school starts 2 hours late.
“On days when the district implements a two-hour delay due to unsafe weather/travel conditions, the following take place: All morning, 4K and Early Childhood classes are canceled. Elementary school start time: approximately 10:45 a.m.”Delay schedule
4 built in snow days
On the 2026 to 2027 calendar, listed as “built-in snow days”.
“The D.C. Everest School District allotted four “built-in” snow days for the 2026-27 school year.”Source
Virtual learning days
D.C. Everest has virtual learning days in its winter plan, up to 2 a year.
“If we exceed the four built-in snow days, and students cannot attend school in person due to inclement weather, students will learn from home as a virtual learning day (snow days number 5 & 6).”Source
Making up a lost day
Beyond day 6, the district will find a way to meet the state minutes.
“If we were to reach a 7th snow day, our team will need to identify a solution to ensure we meet the required minutes set forth by the WI Department of Public Instruction.”Source
