There are predictions from some services that Amman may receive snow over the weekend or into the start of next week.
As a reminder,
ACS takes its cue regarding weather related closures from both the local ministries and from our own reconnaissance regarding road safety.
ACS will make every effort to contact families by SMS and email as early as possible should we face a snow-related closure.
If a single day snow closure is announced late at night or early in the morning, ACS invites everyone to enjoy the fresh snow!
If the closure stretches beyond a single day or is announced in anticipation of a major storm, virtual schooling will be the norm. In such cases, Principals will follow up with schedules and expectations.
