Winter Weather Advisory

Dear Bateman Families,

We truly hope this will be the last weather related update for this season! Per Chicago Public Schools, classes are canceled, and school buildings will be closed Wednesday, January 30th and Thursday, January 31st due to inclement weather forecasted for the remainder of the week.

Schools are Closed Wednesday (1/30) and Thursday (1/31): CPS classes are canceled and school buildings will be closed. District and network offices will be open.

Class is Not in Session Friday (2/1) for Teacher Professional Development Day: Class will not be in session due to previously-scheduled professional development events for staff, which will move forward as planned. District and network offices will be open.

To ensure students do not miss out on valuable instruction, student instructional days will be added to the CPS calendar for Wednesday, June 19, and Thursday, June 20, pending approval from the Chicago Board of Education.

For the latest updates, please visit the CPS website, or follow Chicago Public Schools Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Recorded updates will also be available by phone at (773) 553-1000.

As a reminder, the Neighborhood Boys & Girls Club has graciously opened its doors for our students (see post for fees). We hope you all stay safe and warm in the upcoming days. If there is anything the school can do to support you and your family, please do not hesitate to reach out via email or phone at 773-534-5055.

We can't wait to see you Monday morning at 8:15 am!
-Georgia & Kate
