Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools issued the following announcement on Jan. 21.
Based on information available this afternoon, CMS leaders made the decision for Friday, Jan. 21 to be a remote instruction day. Weather forecasts differ on the potential impact for icy roads Friday in parts of Mecklenburg County, so out of an abundance of caution district staff determined the best course of action is to protect the safety of students and staff by transitioning to remote instruction for the day. Make-up days for high school end of course testing will be announced at a later date.
Before School and After School Enrichment programs will be closed tomorrow. Athletics and extracurricular activities scheduled for Friday and Saturday will be postponed and rescheduled. Community Use of Schools activities will not be permitted Friday or Saturday.
The new semester will begin as scheduled Tuesday, Jan. 25. Any necessary testing for high school students will be held concurrently with the beginning of the semester.
