Dear Parents / Guardians, 

Once again we have been keeping our eye on the weather forecast. According to the latest news, a heavy snowfall is expected to begin tonight and continue on through tomorrow evening, with a possible accumulation of between 5 and 11 inches overnight. The Wednesday morning commute is what news outlets are referring to as "the most hazardous time" of the approaching storm. 

Out of a sense of precaution for our Blazers commuting from all parts of the city of Chicago and suburbs, we have decided that tomorrow - Wednesday, February 2 - will be an asynchronous eLearning day for all students. The office will remain closed as well. There will be no extracurricular or athletic activities on campus. 

Earlier today teachers communicated to their students what materials they need to bring home to complete their assignments from home tomorrow. Tomorrow, all teachers will share assignments on their Google classrooms and will be available to answer students' questions via email or Google classroom. 

Looking ahead to Thursday, February 3 

More snow is predicted for Thursday, February 3. As of now, it is looking as if the conditions will be less dangerous than on Wednesday morning. We will communicate as early as possible tomorrow as to whether there will be any modifications to the school day on Thursday. Modifications could include: 

• Implementing a Late Start Schedule, with classes beginning at 9:30 am. 
• Or, if we do move to a remote day on Thursday, February 3, it would be a synchronous eLearning day for all.

We will communicate updates tomorrow as quickly as they are available. 

Sincerely,  

Amy Gallie 

Principal
