In a delightful twist on snow day notifications, a superintendent from Harrisburg, Illinois, decided to infuse some fun into an otherwise mundane message. Following a snowstorm that led to school closures, Superintendent David Miller recorded an amusing announcement that was sure to bring a smile to parents’ faces.
“Hello, it’s me,” he began, channeling Adele’s iconic style. “The voice you’ve been waiting to hear on snow days.” He then cheerfully informed families, “You will not be going to school… at Harrisburg Unit 3.” This clever rendition was sent to all parents of students enrolled in Harrisburg Community Schools. To ensure clarity, Superintendent Miller concluded with a straightforward reminder: “Due to weather conditions, there will be no school at Harrisburg Unit 3. Enjoy your evening!”
Carla Johnson, a local mom, shared the announcement on social media, leading to it being featured by a nearby news outlet. One parent even dubbed it “the best snow day announcement ever.” This isn’t the first time school officials have gone viral with creative announcements; in 2014, a principal and drama teacher in Kentucky performed a lively version of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” which captured widespread attention, and that same year, a North Carolina school created a rap video to Vanilla Ice’s “Ice Ice Baby” for their snow day news.
While parents often feel the pressure of finding last-minute childcare during unexpected closures, a little humor can ease the stress. Superintendent Miller may not be ready for a music career, but his effort certainly deserves recognition and brought a memorable moment to many families.
