In an amusing twist on traditional snow day notifications, a superintendent in Illinois decided to channel Adele by singing his own rendition of “Hello” to announce school closures due to a snowstorm. Superintendent Mark Thompson lightened the mood as he informed parents that their children would not be attending Harrisburg Community Schools that day.
“Hello, it’s me. The voice you wish you could hear more often on snow days. You will not be going to school… at Harrisburg Unit Three…” Thompson sang, bringing a unique flair to what is typically a mundane message. He then broke character to clarify the important details: “Due to weather conditions, there will be no school at Harrisburg Unit 3. Enjoy your evening.”
The announcement quickly gained traction when a parent, Sarah Johnson, shared it on a local news station’s Facebook page, and it was hailed as one of the funniest snow day announcements ever. This is not the first time school administrators have creatively announced closures; in 2014, a principal in Kentucky performed a version of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” while another school in North Carolina created a rap video set to Vanilla Ice’s “Ice Ice Baby.” These lighthearted approaches provide a welcome relief for parents scrambling for childcare, softening the stress associated with unexpected school closures.
While Superintendent Thompson may want to stick to his administrative duties rather than pursue a singing career, his effort certainly added a touch of humor to an otherwise routine announcement.
