Effective February 25, 2022, CDC does not require wearing of masks on buses or vans operated by public or private school systems, including early care and education/child care programs.
Forecasted sub-freezing temperatures and snow throughout the night on top of this afternoon's icy road conditions give district officials increased confidence that closing our schools by utilizing an e-Learning day tomorrow is the best decision aimed at ensuring the safety of our school community.
Charleston CUSD #1 schools will utilize an e-learning day tomorrow (February 25). Our district’s e-learning plan is accessible on our website at https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/1823159/e-Learning_Plan_8213_.pdf
Due to multiple recent forecasts showing weather events that may lead to treacherous road conditions late this afternoon, Charleston schools will close two hours early today, February 24. Lunches will be served. Students and staff should take whatever is needed home with them in the event than an e-Learning day is called for tomorrow. After school activities for today will be cancelled or postponed. We recognize how this poses an inconvenience to many; however, we want to act with caution for the safety of all who will be travelling in the coming hours.

The southern parts of our region have more icy conditions than our area; however, there is cause to slow down and create space this morning on the roads. As travelers take extra precaution this morning, anticipate bus route delays and school tardies. Safety first!
