Snow piles up in front of Central on Jan. 15, after 6.5 inches of snow fell on Jan. 12 and 13. An e-learning day was called on Jan. 12 due to the snow, and on Jan. 16 due to an ensuing cold front.

District 203 called an e-learning day for Tuesday, Jan. 16 due to severe wind chills forecasted in Naperville and surrounding areas.

This is the second consecutive e-learning day called by the district, with the previous being called on Jan. 12 due to severe winter weather conditions. Students will be out of the classroom for five consecutive days as a result of the two e-learning days and a day off for Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Jan. 15.

The National Weather Service has placed Naperville under a Wind Chill Warning until noon on Tuesday, with the possibility of wind chills reaching 25 to 40 degrees below zero Fahrenheit.

The District notified parents and students of the closings via email, phone calls and social media Monday afternoon.

During the asynchronous instruction period, teachers will be available to answer students’ questions from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.. All lesson plans must be posted by 9 a.m.. 

As of the publishing of this story, no decision has been made regarding after-school activities on Tuesday.

This is a breaking news story, and will be updated as more information becomes available.
