NL D122, Providence Catholic HS Closed, Move To E-Learning Friday

NEW LENOX, IL — New Lenox District 122 schools and Providence Catholic High School will be closed Friday, a decision made in preparation for what's predicted to be a significant winter storm that could bring up to nine inches of snow with 50 mph wind gusts to the Chicago area.

The schools will instead shift to an e-learning day, according to administrators.

For Providence Catholic students, teachers will provide instruction, readings, materials and learning through Microsoft Teams no later than 8 a.m. Friday, the school announced. Students should check each of their class Teams for information and assignments.

Providence teachers will post their “office hours” during which they will be available online for questions and assistance; students can contact them via Teams message, or a Teams call. Tech support will be available from 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Email techhelp@providencecatholic.org, and remain online while you wait for a response. For athletics, students and parents should check the Snap site for updates to their schedules.

New Lenox District 122 students were sent e-learning instructions via email.
