In the case of bad weather, the district may close, start late or dismiss early. If you would like to be notified directly when changes are made, you can sign up for this free notification service provided by the State of Iowa. Iowa School Alerts has changed to the new GovDelivery system. If you were signed up in the past you will need to sign up again at the link below. Western Dubuque Schools is a participant in the program which means you can sign up to receive free e-mail and/or text message notification when classes for our district will be dismissing early, started late or cancelled.

This service is the first notification made. The local TV and radio stations will also be notified of changes and they will post when they are able.
