BRTC classes do not hold make-up classes.  If a class is canceled, the instructor will work to integrate that material into other class meetings or in a different way.

Many local high schools implement AMI, or Alternative Methods of Instruction, days when campus is closed for inclement weather.  BRTC does not hold official AMI days.

However, your instructor may have you complete assignments on Moodle or via another electronic medium, but each instructor has the flexiblity to address classes lost to inclement weather as they see fit.

Please visit with your instructor to determine if your instructor will require submissions of assignments via electronic means.
