Dear EHPS Families,
Greetings! Today, I am writing to update you on our School Delays and Closure memo that occurs for a variety of reasons but most often related to inclement weather. Although there may be snow days it also means our school year will extend into June for every day missed.
The details below are comprehensive and important. Please review this letter carefully.

For up to date information regarding all schools during inclement weather, follow local media stations and East Hartford Public Schools on Twitter @EastHartfordPS. You can also check the district's website at www.easthartford.org or call the Board of Education "HOTLINE" at 622-5131.
Thanks for your attention to these details.
