To ensure the safety of our staff and midshipmen, the Academy campus will be in a Modified Operational Status on Monday, January 26, 2026, due to inclement weather.

Employees with an approved situational telework agreement in CASTLE are expected to work remotely unless they are taking approved leave. 

Employees who do not have an approved situational telework agreement in CASTLE shall use unscheduled leave (e.g., annual leave or other approved time off).  For those who are at a critical level with respect to leave time, there may be a way to still telework on Monday, 26 January 2026; If OPM declares a closure and has the government operating under a Continuity of Operations Plan, emergency telework can be used.  Please work with your supervisors to ensure you are using “Safety” as your ultimate guidance with respect to the Academy’s intent to modify operations this Monday.  

All scheduled classes (first through eighth periods) will be conducted virtually.

We will seek to keep the library open depending on the availability of staff to provide student study space or connections to virtual class.

Faculty will communicate directly with students regarding the status of their classes. 

The Seafarer, Navy Exchange and the Navy Federal Credit Union will be closed.  

Please note that additional emergency notifications may be sent to contacts on file.

USMMA EMERGENCY QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

Purpose of this Guide
The Academy has always worked towards ensuring the campus is a safe place to learn and work. Midshipmen, faculty, and staff can help the Academy safeguard the campus by taking preventative measures to ensure safety and preparedness, and by referencing this guide in the event of an emergency.
While we cannot provide information on all possible incidents that may occur, the information provided in this guide will give you basic procedures to follow in the event of a number of different emergencies. This guide can serve as a quick reference for what to do and who to notify for many different types of emergencies. This is not a comprehensive list of instructions and resources, rather a reminder of the basic steps that should be taken to minimize risks associated with a given hazard and to protect yourself and others from harm.
Time is the most important factor in the optimal management of these types of situations.

DOT is committed to ensuring that information is available in appropriate alternative formats to meet the requirements of persons who have a disability. If you require an alternative version of files provided on this page, please contact Butruchk@usmma.edu.
