Jwanzaa Inclement Weather Policy

Note: Jwanzaa Youth Partnership typically meets at Largo High School. 

Therefore, Jwanzaa follows the cancellation policy for Prince George’s County Public Schools.  When the weather is challenging, the best advice is to listen to the radio or watch the television news for notification of school closings. You may also sign up for email notifications through www.schoolsout.com.

PGCPS Emergency Weather Plan:
The Superintendent generally makes decision concerning early morning school closings or delayed openings prior to 5 a.m.

• An announcement is then provided to 38 radio stations and eight (8) television stations in the Washington metropolitan area.

• This information may also be accessed on the school system's web page at www.pgcps.org and/or www.schools-out.com.

• After 6 a.m., you can also access the school system's Voice Mail Bulletin Board by calling 301-952-6000.  Wait for the opening message, and then press the number 1.

• Watch PGCPS TV on Comcast Channel 96 or Verizon FIOS Channel 38

When schools are closed all evening and weekend activities are cancelled, and school buildings are not available for after-school activities by other private or public organizations.
