1). Saturday programs:

    School will remain open for light snow and be closed for heavy snow. For medium snow, please check our website for information. Call 206-380-1222 if you are not sure. Please keep the call brief to help the line remain open for other parents. Thanks!
2). Weekday English Reading, Writing, Math, Art, and Family Chinese programs:
    Please contact your teacher to find out if the lesson is cancelled or rescheduled. We will also try our best to make announcements on our school website.
3). Weekday Preschool (Early Learning Program) and After-school programs:
    These programs follow each area’s public school district’s decision. Seattle site follows Seattle public schools’ announcement. Bellevue site follows Bellevue public schools’ announcement. We close when the public schools are closed.

    Please pay close attention to TV or radio news for school districts’ announcement. Or check information at school districts’ websites:

    Seattle: www.seattleschools.org

    Call 206-361-1000 (Seattle site) or 206-388-9968 (Bellevue site) for snow day late pick up or other emergencies. Please keep the call brief to help the line remain open for other parents. Please do not call these numbers for non-emergency issues. Late pick up fee for each student is $10 per 1-30 minutes, directly payable to the teacher. Thanks!

    a). For part-time preschool and after-school students, make-up lessons are available the following week. Please talk to your teachers to make arrangements. All make-up lessons should be taken within one week.

    b). For daily preschool students, the only make-up time available is our Saturday preschool class the following week. Please check our online calendar for Saturday school dates and be mindful of the quarterly breaks or holidays.

    c). For daily after-school students, make-up lessons will be offered when the public schools have their make-up days near the end of the school year.

    d). For Saturday students, WIS will announce a make-up day, which is usually the first available Saturday after the snow day closure. Announcement will be posted in school, as well as on our website.

    e). For weekday English, Writing, Math, and other classes, please talk to your teachers to make arrangements. Usually a make-up lesson will be offered within a week.

    No refund or credit will be issued if a student misses the make-up lesson(s).
