Finding NYC School Closures: Reliable Real-Time Sources

I cannot provide real-time school closure information. For accurate, up-to-date status on New York City school closures, use these official channels:

Primary Sources

• NYC Department of Education (DOE) Website: schools.nyc.gov – Official announcements, calendar, alerts
• Notify NYC: Free emergency alerts (email, text, app) for school closures, delays, emergencies
• 311: Call or visit 311.nyc.gov for DOE status

Weather-Related Closures

• DOE Snow Day Policy: Chancellor decides by 5:30 AM; announced via above channels
• National Weather Service: NYC forecasts for context

Other Reliable Outlets

• NYC Public Schools Twitter: @NYCSchools
• Major local news: NY1, WABC, NY Post, Gothamist, Chalkbeat NY
• School-specific: Check your child's school website/app or call the main office

Pro Tip

Sign up for Notify NYC alerts customized to your zip code and school district for instant notifications.

Closures can be citywide, district-wide, or individual school—always verify through official DOE channels.
