A Tradition of Excellence

News & Announcements

All 157-C Schools are OPEN Tuesday, January 21.

The National Weather Service forecasts cold temperatures through tomorrow morning, including a below zero wind chill.

While it will be bitterly cold, we will hold in-person learning tomorrow for our three schools tomorrow based on the following factors:

Lincoln-Way Transportation tested their buses yesterday and today and feel confident that the vehicles will be able to run properly for the morning and afternoon commutes.

Our facilities and maintenance team have been monitoring our buildings and temperatures inside all schools will be safe and comfortable for staff and students.

We encourage all students to dress appropriately for the inclement weather – especially those that wait at a bus stop in the morning. Our staff will be in hats, gloves, heavy coats, and scarves for all outside supervisory duties during the morning– we ask that our students please do the same.

If there are any possible delays with any bus routes in the morning, our staff will be in touch as soon as possible. In addition, please contact our FSD 157-C District Office team at 815-469-5922 to report any issues immediately so that our team may assist.

Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we seek the best educational outcomes for all our students in Frankfort School District 157-C
