Oak Park Schools Closed Tuesday 1/21 and Wednesday 1/22 Due to Freezing Temperatures

Due to anticipated inclement weather and hazardous road conditions in the early morning hours, the Oak Park School District will be closed on Thursday, February 6, 2025. To prioritize safety, we are announcing this closure earlier than usual to give families additional time to make necessary arrangements. All school-related activities scheduled for this day will also be postponed.

We understand that school closure decisions are never perfect due to the unpredictable nature of the weather, but our priority is always the safety of our students, staff, and community. Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

Stay warm, stay safe, and take care!

Oak Park Schools Community,

In light of the changing landscape of new immigration laws, Oak Park Schools remains steadfast in our commitment to providing a safe and welcoming environment for all students, staff, and families.

Every school in the Oak Park School District is a safe place for every student. Under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), federal law strictly prohibits the release of student information without parental or guardian consent, except when legally required. Any requests from immigration officials should be immediately directed to our central office for handling.

Oak Park has long been a home to many immigrants and a vibrant community that celebrates its diversity. This inclusivity is what makes our district so special, and we are dedicated to ensuring that every child feels safe, supported, and valued within our schools.
