Class Cancellations Extended to Tuesday in Shorewood

The severe cold has prompted area school officials to cancel classes for a second day.

As we enter Day 2 of the Return of the Polar Vortex, area schools have doubled up on class cancellations.

The dangerously cold temperatures that froze the Chicago area Monday are expected to continue their chill on Tuesday. Officials across many area school districts told students to stay home.

With no break in the deep freeze forecast for Tuesday, school chiefs are again asking kids to not come to class.

The following school districts have canceled classes for Tuesday:

  • Troy District 30-C 
  • Minooka District 201
  • Plainfield District 202
  • Joliet Township District 204
  • Minooka High School
  • Joliet Junior College
