Status on school closings for the eclipse

by Steve Dunford

After being in contact with each school district in the county, all Franklin County  schools have made the decision to close for Monday, August 21st.  A representative for BCHS said I should have an answer by tomorrow.   The first official day of school at Sesser-Valier is the 22nd.

John A. Logan College and Southern Illinois University have decided to cancel classes as well.  Rend Lake College will be in session on that day.

Rend Lake College will be in session on the 21st.

Outside of Franklin County, Johnston City and Marion will not be in session that day.  I will post a running list of cancellations every few days on the website.

I would appreciate if someone would share if your school, business, or organization will be altering schedules or plans for this day.  You can call me at 937-0253, call or text at 513-1274, e-mail me at sdunford1970@hotmail.com, or send me a message on Facebook.
