Emergency School Closing Info

The Baldwin-Woodville Area School District uses an automation service which sends telephone messages and emails to all parents/guardians regarding important school related emergencies such as school closings within minutes of being announced.

The successful delivery of information is dependent upon accurate contact information for each student. Please make certain to update your primary phone number(s) on Family Access under the Skylert tab.

School closings will continue to be announced on the following TV stations listed below. Morning announcements will be made prior to the time students must board the bus.

  • KSTP- Channel 5

  • WCCO- Channel 4

  • KMSP- Channel 9

  • KARE 11- Channel 11

  • WEAU- Channel 13

Parents and students may also call the SCHOOL CLOSING HOTLINE @ 715-684-2200. A brief prerecorded message will inform the callers of the status of school for that day. If there is not a current message, school will be on time.

If severe weather develops during the day, the notification system will be used to contact parents/guardians; parents are also encouraged to monitor the TV stations listed above, or call the SCHOOL CLOSING HOTLINE, to be informed of school closing early.

Please do not call the schools, bus garage, or transportation office to request closing information as it is important to keep the lines open for us to make the necessary arrangements for late start or cancellation.
