Emergency Closings

Emergency KYW closing number: 464

As you are aware, you have been receiving telephone messages through our district messaging system, Global Connect. This process was started during the 2005-2006 school year and will be expanded this year to include school closings.

Earlier this year you were asked to provide emergency numbers. Using these numbers and your home phone number, Southeast Delco School District will be contacting you in the event of a weather related closing, a weather related early dismissal, or an emergency closing. Weather closing information will still be available on WKAP11 the school district television channel, KYW1060, NBC10 and ABC4. Our closing number remains 464.

This very unique communication tool can also be used in the event of a district or community emergency situation as occurred at the Kindergarten Center on December 4. A message describing the event or providing specific instructions can be created and sent within minutes of its occurrence.

If you have changed any numbers, please contact your child’s building secretary in order to keep your information is accurate and up to date. If your information is not accurate, the messaging system will not reach you.

Thanks for your help with this important endeavor. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call.
