On a day like today when most central Illinois schools have called off school for the day, the decision to do some can be pretty black and white. 

Monticello Schools Superintendent Adam Clapp explains for days like today, where wind chills are well below zero, the decision often comes down where temperatures are at and considering the scenario of students who utilize busses for transportation.

Snow days can be a different process and Clapp explains there is a lot of collaboration but sometimes decisions district-to-district aren't always the same. 

For Clapp and his peers, the option to implement a remote learning day in the event of a snow day or cancellation has allowed learning to continue. However, an e-learning day is something that needs to be prepared for.
