Lightning Policy

Lightning Detection Procedure During Summer Camp

Carrollwood Day School has a lightning detection policy in place for Summer Camp. Carrollwood Day School is equipped with a weather monitoring system from EarthNetworks that allows us to have a full weather station specific to our campus.

When lightning is detected within two miles of campus, all dismissal and arrivals will be paused. Dismissal and arrival procedures will resume when the all clear is given by our security team.

We are unable to dismiss or accept campers while an active lightning alert is in effect.

For the safety of all our families, please remain in your vehicle until our "Lightning Alert" sign has been removed or you have received an all clear via email or text notification.
