Clases y actividades extraescolares canceladas el viernes 23 de enero / Classes and After-School Activities Canceled on Friday, January 23
Dear CPS Families,
We have been carefully monitoring the forecast over the past 24 hours and have determined that, given the frigid temperatures predicted for tomorrow and a National Weather Service Warning that wind chills could reach -35 degrees, it will be unsafe for staff and students to travel to school. Therefore, we are canceling all classes for Friday, January 23. All after-school programming, including athletic practices and games, are also canceled for Friday. However, all activities will proceed as scheduled on Saturday, January 24.
Estimadas familias de CPS:
Hemos estado monitoreando cuidadosamente el pronóstico durante las últimas 24 horas y hemos determinado que, dadas las gélidas temperaturas pronosticadas para mañana y la advertencia del Servicio Meteorológico Nacional de que la sensación térmica podría alcanzar los -35 grados, no será seguro para el personal y los estudiantes viajar a la escuela. Por lo tanto, cancelamos todas las clases del viernes 23 de enero. Todos los programas extraescolares, incluyendo prácticas y partidos deportivos, también se cancelan para el viernes. Sin embargo, todas las actividades continuarán según lo programado el sábado 24 de enero.
Por favor, NO envíen a sus estudiantes a la escuela mañana, ya que no habrá adultos para recibirlos. Además, los guardias de cruce y los trabajadores de seguridad vial no estarán de servicio. Please DO NOT send students to school tomorrow, as there WILL NOT be adults to receive them. In addition, crossing guards and Safe Passage Workers WILL NOT be on duty.
