Weather and Emergency Closures – Aurora Public Schools
CURRENT STATUS
Remote Learning is Optional on Snow Days
Based on parent, staff and student feedback, we have decided to keep snow days as school closures, which is what APS has traditionally done. This means that remote learning will not be required on snow days.
We recognize that there may be some families who wish to continue learning at home during snow days, so we will continue to remind students and families about our remote learning resources that are available on our website. Please use these resources to accelerate learning at home including reading eBooks with your student through Sora and the Aurora Public Library.
If our district closes schools or delays start times, announcements will be made:
- on local television and radio stations
- on the APS website
- on Facebook and Twitter
- on the APS Emergency Line (303-326-1080)
- on the APS mobile app
- and sent to parent/guardian phones
When inclement weather hits Aurora, APS Support Services staff work to determine how the weather will impact the school day.
How Weather Conditions are Assessed
APS staff members assess conditions beginning just after midnight to determine the impact on operations. Should we need to close schools or delay the start of the school day, the superintendent and staff will make the decision as early as possible. APS schools provide many vital resources for students and families. Whenever possible, we strive to keep schools open.
Please know that even though adverse weather conditions may only affect some areas of the district, in the interest of safety, APS will generally close all of its schools.
Once a decision is made, information about the decision is shared as soon as possible with all media, posted on the APS website and mobile app, Facebook and Twitter, recorded on the APS Emergency Line at 303-326-1080, and sent to parent phones using our automated messaging system.
Please Note: If your child attends an APS charter school, please check in with your child’s school on their status.
Delayed Start Times
Should APS staff make the decision to delay school, the school day would begin one hour later than normal. Staff members are expected to arrive at school as close to their regular start time as is safely possible as some students will arrive on time.
APS buses will pick up students one hour later than normal. Dismissal times at the end of the school day will remain the same. Afternoon preschool start times will also remain the same. Some class schedules may be affected by the delayed start. Please check with your school for any specific schedule changes.
For before-school care, please contact your care provider.
Please Note: If your child attends an APS charter school, please check in with your child’s school on their status.
Our top priority is to keep students and staff as safe as possible.
Please note: A delayed start does not change regular dismissal times or pick-up times at the end of the school day.

History
background
Dinosaur footprints
Dinosaur ridge.
In 1877, Arthur Lakes discovered in and around Morrison the holotype dinosaur remains, Stegosaurus Stegosaurus armatus and Apatosaurus Apatosaurus ajax . Most of these fossils were sent to Othniel Charles Marsh at the Peabody Museum of Natural History in Yale, Connecticut. These results will play a role in XIX – m century, in the “Bone Wars” between paleontologist rival Edward Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh. A layer of sediment dating from the Late Jurassic and excavated by lakes has been named the Morrison Formation.
The Morrison Museum of Natural History (MNHM) houses and exhibits some of the fossils found by Lakes, and the museum team has resumed excavations at sites explored by Lakes. In 2006, MNHGM announced a rare discovery in the vicinity of Morrison of trace Stegosaurus ( Stegosaurus ) preserved in sandstone. The following year, the discovery of the first traces of newborn stegosaurs was announced. These fossils are on display at the MNHM. Cretaceous dinosaur footprints and one of the Lake’s historic sites can be seen on Dinosaur Ridge, east of Morrison.
History
Morrison was founded in 1874.
