Spring 2025 Countdown Continues with Weather Info
Hello ACC Pumas!
Given the winter weather, we wanted to share information and reminders on ACC’s weather procedures.
- Your safety is the most important consideration.
- If you feel it is not safe to travel to campus from your location even if campus is open, please stay home. Check D2L to see any specific instructions on your class if it was to meet in person. Online classes continue during campus closures and some in person classes may switch to online - check D2L. Notify your instructor(s) that you will be absent and make arrangements to complete any missed assignments - again check D2L for information from your instructor. Same goes for any appointments - please check ACC if you have an in-person appointment and weather conditions prevent you from making it to campus.
- Because ACC has different considerations, we DO NOT follow the same guidelines as K-12 school districts.
- ACC works hard to make the announcement of a closure or delay start by 6:00am that day, and when necessary, at least 2 hours prior to early closure if necessary.
- Notification is made through ACC’s emergency text system (all students are auto enrolled if you provided a mobile #), to local media and posted on the ACC main web page and social media accounts. You can also download the ACC Alert app from any app store, but it is not necessary.
- Clinicals are not affected by campus delays or closures. Students who have clinicals should contact their instructor directly with questions.
We know snow, ice and extreme weather conditions create challenges for students, staff and faculty. ACC students, staff and instructors all come from a variety of places to attend courses at any of ACC’s locations. Weather and road conditions can vary widely from Littleton to Parker to Castle Rock to wherever you may reside. ACC takes all of these into consideration.
Thank you!
