Snow Cap/Weather Alert Information
Parents, Students, and
Community Members: Over the past few weather emergencies that have
occurred this school year, the Cherokee Community School District has
experienced continual failure with its emergency school notification
service, Snow Cap. The failure of alerts to be sent out is a dangerous
problem and the district is currently examining other providers that
offer similar services. This problem is not just a Cherokee Community
School District issue, but rather an issue that schools across Northwest
Iowa have been experiencing. While we search for other providers we
are encouraging our current Snow Cap subscribers to subscribe to KTIV
Alerts. Complete the form and
be sure to select Cherokee under the "Schools" section.
Snow Make Up Days
Due to the multiple days of school missed to weather related issues this school year, the Cherokee CSD will make up snow days on the following dates: Monday, February 15th, Friday March 5th, and Monday, April 5th. These days had been previously scheduled as professional development days. School will be in session until 1pm on these days.
