Norwell has a scheduled 2-hour delay tomorrow for professional development. The weather forecast has shifted to snow/sleet starting at 1:00PM. Many local school districts are preparing for possible early dismissals tomorrow. This would not be an option for Norwell as we are already on a shortened scheduled. Of course, we have no way of knowing neither the timing nor the extent of any snow and ice accumulations. However, acting on the side of caution, Norwell will implement a synchronous (livestreamed) e-Learning Day tomorrow, February 12, 2025. Students should follow the e-Learning schedule.
Reminder that this Wednesday, Feb. 12 school will be on a two-hour delay schedule!
Preschool Enrollment Night at OES will be held as scheduled for tonight, February 6, 2025. Reminder, the event is from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
Unfortunately, the county road conditions have not changed as we had expected to this point. Norwell Community Schools will move to eLearning for Thursday, February 6, 2025.
Bear Care and Bobcat Care will remain open this morning on a regular schedule. Due to rising temperatures and salt being spread by our highway department, we expect to be onsite following the 2-hour delay. 2.6.25
For tomorrow's preschool enrollment night at OES, any cancellation/rescheduling of the event due to inclement weather will be decided separate from any school day decisions. An announcement will be made and posted by 2:00PM tomorrow.
