One of the benefits of online learning from the comfort of your home is that your student doesn’t have to slog through the snow to catch the school bus. No matter what winter may bring, your youngster can just keep on learning, via the computer and associated technology.

Not so fast.

A notice from Fairbanks School Superintendent Karen Gaborik, issued at 6:05 pm on Sunday, says all remote classes are cancelled Monday, due to weather. Here’s the official word on the matter:

“Due to the winter storm warning which is predicting more snow, freezing rain, dangerous road conditions, and power outages, ALL remote district classes and in-school sessions are CANCELLED for Monday, November 9, 2020.”  

“As of now, school and classes are expected to resume Tuesday, November 10. Additional communication will be sent if this changes.”
