Inclement Weather

Bad weather and other emergencies

It may sometimes be necessary to close schools, delay opening or release students early when bad weather occurs or there is another emergency. Families should have a plan in place for these times.

If schools are closed, open late or close early, then announcements will be posted on oneccps.org and social media and will be communicated to families via text and email. If schools are open regular hours, then no announcement will be made. 

To receive emergency messages:

  • Parents and guardians should make sure their contact information, including cell number, is up to date in ParentVue.

  • Employees of Chesterfield County Public Schools should make sure their contact information, including cell number, is up to date in Employee Online.

 Chesterfield County Public Schools officials make decisions as early as possible, but sometimes there is too much uncertainty to make an early determination.

When Chesterfield County Public Schools closes because of severe weather, transportation is not provided to Maggie L. Walker Governor’s School, Appomattox Regional Governor’s School and CodeRVA Regional High School.
