Inclement Weather

On inclement weather days, Celebrate KIDS! will operate on a full-day schedule unless otherwise stated. If weather conditions create a dangerous traveling situation, Celebrate KIDS! will close for the day. Celebrate Kids! will post closures on our Celebrate KIDS’ Facebook page and parents will be notified via text message. On days where schools close early due to inclement weather, we will pick up children at their respective schools and transport them to our facility. Should the weather become increasingly dangerous, we will post an early closing on our Celebrate KIDS! Facebook page and contact parents via text message. On days when it is determined that the road conditions are too dangerous to transport Children to our facility from their schools, we will contact parents and post this notice on our Celebrate KIDS!
