Inclement Weather & Schedule Changes

Weather cancellations can be tricky during the spring season, but you can stay informed in a variety of ways. We try to make the call by 1PM in the case of inclement weather. Please check the Lurgio homepage for school updates or the weekly schedule on our athletics website. In addition, you may want to check your email because coaches often communicate with parents once a call has been made.\

Weekly Schedule

As always, the weekly schedule is available on our athletics website.
