  School Delays and Closings

Parents are reminded to listen to their TVs and radios for the possibility of a delay or cancellation of school. Noted below are the procedures for delayed opening and early dismissal

Delayed Openings

When schools have a delayed opening, before school programs operated in Norwalk Public Schools will also have a delayed start for the same amount of time as the schools. For example, if an elementary school opens two hours late due to snow (opening at 11 a.m. instead of 9 a.m.), the afterschool program will also start two hours later (opening at 9 a.m. instead of 7 a.m.).

Early Dismissal

When there is early dismissal due to bad weather or any other unsafe conditions, afterschool programs are cancelled.

When there is a scheduled early dismissal as shown on the school calendar (e.g. parent conferences, etc.), afterschool programs will begin as soon as school is dismissed and will remain open until their regularly scheduled closing time (generally 6 p.m.)

Information regarding weather-related school opening delays, early dismissals and closures can be obtained from the following sources:
