Our
inclement weather policy of all campuses is
linked to that of Montgomery County Public Schools
(MCPS). If MCPS opens during inclement weather,
so do we- unless we have a campus specific emergency
(power outage, etc.)
Check our phones (301-299-7360 at Bells Mill
or 301-299-3818 for Potomac) after 6:30AM for
a recorded update regarding a school closing
or delayed opening. If MCPS changes its decision
after 6:30 (which occasionally happens), our
status will also changes accordingly.
On inclement weather days that we are able
to open, we cannot guarantee a plowed driveway
or salted sidewalks. Please use caution.

An adult must sign-in children upon drop-off.
We must also have a phone number where a responsible
party can be reached in case we must alter our
