PRESCHOOL
​CALENDAR

Harnett County Calendar
Divine Street United Methodist Church Preschool
follows the Harnett County Public School
calendar for holidays and closures.
(Please note if Harnett County schools adds or changes a holiday date or closure, we will add/change as well)

Because we are open 9 a.m. - Noon
we do not follow delayed openings and closings.

Notes from our handbook:

    • Thanksgiving Break  (November 22,23,24,2023)

  • Teacher workdays will be observed following the Harnett County Public School calendar and no children will be present in the classrooms.
 
School Closing, Early Dismissal, Delays Due to Weather
  • Preschool follows the weather closing decisions of Harnett County Public Schools.  If Harnett County is closed, DSUMC Preschool will be closed. This includes closing for epidemic illness.
  • If Harnett County is opening on a two-hour delay, DSUMC Preschool will open at the regularly scheduled 9:00 a.m.  Parents/guardians should use personal judgment on safe driving conditions.  For liability reasons, the preschool/church staff may not advise anyone on travel decisions. 
  • Early dismissals are judged on a case-by-case basis.  Parents/guardians will be notified by teachers should an early dismissal be necessary.  Contact information must remain current. 
 
Weather Safety
  • In the event of imminent danger due to severe weather conditions, the safety of children will be the first priority.  When necessary, children will be relocated to a safe location inside the church buildings. 
 
Lock-down
  • Lockdown is implemented when the threat of violence, gunfire, or imminent danger in the church or the surrounding community is identified.  During lockdown, children and staff will remain in designated lockdown locations at all times.  NO ONE WILL BE ALLOWED IN OR OUT OF THE BUILDING until an “all clear” signal is given by law enforcement or the pastor or the preschool director.  In the unlikely event the preschool/church experiences an emergency, the safety of children will be the first priority.  Once children are secure, every effort will be made to provide information to parents/guardians.
