Procedures
Knox Technical Center (KTC) is usually open during inclement weather. A delay or closing of KTC will be implemented under extreme circumstances. During inclement weather, staff and students are urged to exercise good judgment regarding travel. The Knox Technical Center Administration will make the decision on whether to delay or close for the day. This decision is separate from the KCCC high school and preschool decision to delay or close as there are different circumstances involved. For delays and closings, the following details apply.
