All elementary schools will be closed to students on Friday, January 11.

Near North elementary teachers are participating in a one day political protest at our elementary schools. Secondary schools will remain open to secondary students in grades 9-12.

During this protest, we can’t ensure the safety of elementary students in grades (JK-8). Parents are asked to please make alternate child care arrangements.

Our elementary schools will re-open on Monday, January 14.
Elementary children who ride a school bus will not be picked up as transportation services will not be available for those students. Buses will pick up secondary students.

Parents should contact their school-based daycares for specific information on availability of programs on this day. Picketing may occur at elementary schools.

We understand and sincerely regret this disruption for our students, staff, and families. If any further action is expected, we will again inform parents in as timely fashion as is possible.
