The severe weather situation in large parts of Austria is very serious. Numerous federal states are affected by heavy rain and snowfall. Our safety must therefore be our top priority – especially for our youngest children.
For this reason, students whose place of residence is directly affected by the storm disaster are automatically excused for tomorrow, Monday, September 16, 2024.
Likewise, students who cannot come to school because they cannot get to school due to disruptions in public transport or because the journey to school would be too dangerous due to storm and flood damage are automatically considered excused.
If entire school locations have to be closed, parents, students and teachers will be informed today directly by the school’s sponsor, i.e. the affected municipality, or the management.
If planned school events have to be cancelled or postponed, parents and students will be informed directly by the school.
The same rule applies to teachers, school management and administrative staff at schools.
All teachers and administrative staff who work in disaster relief, for example as part of the volunteer fire brigade, and whose presence in the disaster area is immediately required, are automatically exempted.
We would like to thank all emergency services for their tireless efforts!
