The weather forecast suggests there could be more snow and ice across metro Atlanta this week, and most schools have closed in response.  We always post local Center and program closures on our web site.  Please check back for updates.  Our general rule of thumb is to follow the local school calendar, unless circumstances warrant otherwise.    

We are tracking the history of school and related CMC Atlanta program closures this term, and we will post make up options for missed lessons and AMP days as it becomes clear how school districts will adjust their calendars in response to this winter's unusual number of winter weather related interruptions.  

During the winter months local schools occasionally close due to snow, ice or cold.  When schools are closed, it sometimes makes sense for us to offer a Day Camp Workshop.  These workshops provide coverage for moms and dads who either want or need it.  We can almost always provide this service when the main danger to student welfare is exposure to extreme cold and wind.  (Moms and dads bring students by car directly to us from door-to-door, so no one is likely in jeopardy of exposure.)  We are less likely to offer the service if schools are closed due to icy or snow-covered roads or widespread power outages.  

When schools close, AMP and Core program lessons at the local CMC Atlanta facility are cancelled for the day.  Please note: closures affect only the district for the neighborhood CMC location.  For example, CMC Decatur closes when CSD close; a CSD closure does not affect programming in Little 5 Points or Dunwoody.
