Inclement Weather Policy

All Faith Development/JYM/TYM/ECC and MMO classes follow Wake County School System for school cancellations. If Wake County cancels school due to weather, there will be no Faith Development/JYM/TYM/ECC or MMO.

If there is a delay, ECC and MMO will start as follows:

  • Mothers Morning Out (MMO)
  • If Wake County Schools are closed - MMO is closed
  • If Wake County Schools delay 1 hour - MMO has classes from 10:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m.
  • If Wake County Schools delay 2 hours - MMO has classes from 10:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m.

  • Early Childhood Center (ECC)
  • If Wake County Schools are closed - ECC is closed
  • If Wake County Schools have a 1 hour delay - ECC has classes from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
  • If Wake County Schools have a 2 hour delay - ECC has classes from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

If the weather is bad, there will be no morning Mass and our facility is closed all day and evening; we do not have anyone that lives on the grounds so therefore it is unfair to ask someone to come out to open and lock up. Once again we ask your consideration. Please call the parish office (362-0414) for weekend Masses if inclement weather occurs.
