KIDS WEST uses West Des Moines Community School District buildings
and abides by the district’s cancellation/early
dismissal policy regarding school closings (it also lists
the radio and television stations to watch for announcements).
In the event of severe weather or
weather-related emergencies, the following policies are in
effect:
If school is cancelled for the day, KIDS WEST will be cancelled.
District school buildings are not available for our use
if school is closed.
If school starts late, KIDS WEST will also start late. For
example, with a one-hour late school start, KIDS WEST will
open at 7:30 a.m. instead of 6:30 a.m. and continue until
school starts at 9:50 a.m.
If school dismisses early, KIDS WEST begins at time of dismissal.
Parents are asked to pick up their child(ren) as soon as
possible so that they – and the staff – may
travel home safely.
If weather is severe or an emergency arises during full-day
care, the decision to cancel KIDS WEST or KIDS WEST Summer
Day Camp will be made at 5:30 a.m. We will credit your account
for any session cancelled if you have paid in advance.
KIDS WEST office and on-site staff will monitor extreme
weather conditions when making decisions regarding outdoor
play and field trips.
