Emergency Closings and Safety Information

EMERGENCY CLOSINGS

The Superintendent is authorized to close schools due to hazardous weather or other emergencies that threaten the safety of students, staff members, or school property. In the event of severe weather, such as extreme cold or accumulating precipitation, District 45 may decide to use a traditional emergency day (no attendance) or utilize our e-Learning plan (virtual attendance), depending on the circumstances. Should the district decide on either an emergency day or e-Learning day, district notification systems will be used to communicate this decision to families, including emails, phone calls, text messaging, district websites and social media. In addition, District 45 provides closing information to the Emergency Closing Center, sponsored by WGN Radio. The district will always communicate as soon as possible, but no later than 6 a.m. that day. If school is in session, no announcement will be made. It should be assumed school is in session unless the district sends information stating otherwise.

SAFETY INFORMATION

When children feel physically and emotionally safe, they can better focus on learning. During the school year, District 45 teaches students how to prepare and be alert for unexpected situations. As part of this process, schools regularly practice school and bus evacuation, severe weather, and shelter-in-place drills.

District 45 maintains a comprehensive safety plan. For security reasons, we do not post the plan on our District website. Working with the Villa Park and Lombard Fire and Police Departments, safety and emergency procedures have been developed for a wide range of situations. District 45 also has a Student Resource Officer (SRO). Read more about our SRO and more about Safety In Our Schools.
