EMERGENCY WEATHER INFORMATION
-SCHOOL CLOSINGS/DELAYS/EARLY DISMISSALS
The Seneca Valley School District will make every effort to close or delay school by 5:30 a.m. of the affected day. Delays that turn into closures will be made by 7:30 a.m. of the affected day. Please know that early dismissals will be avoided whenever possible, but if necessary, will be made by 11 a.m. of the affected day.
When Seneca Valley has a closing or delay, the district will first utilize School Messenger, a parent notification system, which will be programmed to call the primary phone number as listed for each child. In an emergency situation or in the event that the district goes from a two-hour delay to a closure, an emergency call will be sent to all provided numbers per student (this is the primary number and up to three additional numbers provided per child) so the information reaches all those affected by the emergency or change in status. School Messenger information is collected via the Parent Portal, and parents are encouraged to revise Parent Portal information throughout the year when necessary.
Emergency or delay/closure/early dismissal information can also be found on KDKA Radio 1020 AM, KDKA-TV Channel 2, WTAE-TV Channel 4, WPXI-TV Channel 11, SVTV Channel 50 (Digital Channel 208, TV Channel 407 for Consolidated Communications customers) or via a recording on our main campus phone line at (724) 452-6040.
