Dear BFA Community,
After observing other Denver-area schools announcing delays, Ben Franklin Academy has proactively decided to implement a 90-Minute Delay on Wednesday, February 12. The safety of our students and staff is our top priority, and we hope this early decision helps families plan their mornings accordingly.
If Douglas County School District declares a Snow Day, BFA will follow suit and be closed for the day.
Carpool starts at 9:15 a.m. with school starting at 9:45 a.m.
BFA is on a 90-Minute Delayed Start with the following schedule:
- BASE: Before school care opens at 8:15 a.m. Please do not drop off your child earlier than 8:15 a.m. for before care, as no one will be at BFA to supervise your child.
- Before School Activities: All activities are canceled.
- Carpool: Carpool on a delayed start day begins at 9:15 a.m.
- School: School starts at 9:45 a.m.
- Half-Day Kindergarten: Morning kindergarten starts at 9:45 a.m. and ends at the normal time. Afternoon kindergarten times do not change – normal start/end times apply.
- Preschool: BFA preschool will open at 9:40 a.m. and dismiss at the normal time. Afternoon times do not change – normal start/end times apply. Party will begin after check in.

- 6th Grade Electives: Selections will open at 10:30 a.m. instead of the original time.
Please give yourself extra time when driving tomorrow morning. You always have the option of keeping your child home if you feel that the roads or temperatures are unsafe even if the school is open. Email us to let us know. This will be listed as an excused absence.
