Due to the Extreme Cold Weather Warning set to expire at 9 AM on Thursday, February 20, 2025, CPS will have a late start (10 AM) on Thursday, February 20, 2025.
All classes will begin at 10 a.m. There are no morning preschool classes, and all buses will run accordingly. During the warning (9 PM Wednesday to 9 AM Thursday), windchills are expected to reach -33 degrees. However, at 10 AM, windchills are expected to warm to -16 degrees.
Crete Public Schools recognizes the right and responsibility of parents in the matter of school attendance. This leaves the discretion and judgment of parents to decide whether or not it is safe for their student(s) to attend school during inclement weather. Please know all CPS attendance policies and practices are in effect when we are in school.
Thank you for your understanding and support. For more information on how we determine late starts and school closures, please visit our website by clicking here.
