Emergency Closing for Inclement Weather

As a general rule, the College will try to avoid canceling classes because of inclement weather. In the event that weather conditions do necessitate changes to the College's schedule of operation, the following procedures shall be followed:

• An announcement will be made on local media outlets including: television (WSAZ-3; WCHS-8; WOWK-13) and radio stations (WCMI, WTCR, WLGC, WGOH, WKEE, and WRVC, among others).
• An announcement will be made on the college home page (www.ashland.kctcs.edu)
• An announcement will be made on the ACTC switchboard. (326-2000, or 800-928-4256
• An announcement will be made as early as possible in the morning for daytime classes or as early as possible in the afternoon for evening, in the event of inclement weather.

SPECIAL NOTE: ACTC serves a large geographic area and weather conditions may be different in different areas. If weather conditions prevent a student from attending class when the College is open, faculty will work with the student on missed assignments. The personal safety of all students, faculty, and staff is the first priority.

Evening Students (on-campus and off-campus): Classes will either meet as usual or be canceled altogether. The college will make every effort to make announcements on evening class cancellations by 4:00 p.m. IF YOU DO NOT HEAR AN ANNOUNCEMENT, YOU SHOULD ASSUME THAT CLASSES WILL MEET AS USUAL.

Evening Students (off-campus): Any cancellation of on-campus evening classes will apply as well to the off-campus locations. Consequently, when on-campus classes meet, so will classes at the off-campus sites.
