Busing When There Is a Delay

Chelsea, Tunbridge, Rochester & Stockbridge Bus): Tri-Valley Transit school buses cannot be guaranteed if the start of school is delayed. It may be necessary for parents and students to work together to carpool to TSA. If this is not possible, students will be excused from any absence that day. We will announce as part of the school delay announcement if staff can be available at school so that students can take their regularly scheduled bus.

How will I know when school is closed or delayed?

If school is canceled or delayed due to the weather or any other emergency, a “robo-call” via Blackboard Connect will be issued by 6:30am to all families who have provided correct, current contact information. We will also leave an outgoing message on the school answering machines and place a note on the TSA homepage: www.sharonacademy.org. Closings are also announced on local radio stations and TV stations WCAX (channel 3) and WPTZ (channel 5). On occasions when power is out, we will not be able to leave a message on the school answering machine or place a note on the homepage.

Parents, if you feel that the roads are not safe and we have not called a snow day, please call the high school (802-763-2500) and let us know that your student will be late or not be in that day.

TSA does not normally close early due to inclement weather.  On the rare occasion that TSA does close early, TSA will use the Blackboard Connect system to notify parents and guardians and may oversee the creation of carpools to get students home safely.

If a family’s contact information changes at any time during the year (moving, new job, new phone, etc) it is essential that you update your information on Blackbaud.
