Lexington County, SC – Families in Lexington County School District Four are being urged to prepare for an e-Learning day today, Monday, February 2, as winter weather continues to impact road and travel conditions across the region.
According to Lexington School District Four officials, all schools will transition to e-Learning due to a winter storm warning that remains in effect through Sunday morning. Forecasters warn of potential snow accumulation followed by overnight freezing temperatures, which could create hazardous road conditions into early Monday.
District officials say colder temperatures are expected to freeze any remaining moisture on roadways, making travel unsafe for students, staff, and families during the morning commute. The decision was made to allow families additional time to prepare for remote instruction.
Students will be marked present for the e-Learning day as long as all assigned work is completed by Friday, February 6. Parents can expect further communication from individual schools and teachers with specific instructions related to online assignments and attendance requirements.
In addition to the shift to remote learning, all afterschool activities, extracurricular events, and athletic programs scheduled for Monday have been canceled, according to the district.
Lexington School District Four serves communities across Lexington County, located in the Midlands region near the Columbia metro area. Officials encourage families to continue monitoring district communications and local weather updates as conditions evolve.
Residents are advised to limit unnecessary travel, monitor road conditions, and take precautions during freezing overnight temperatures.
