How Toledo calls a snow day

How families hear

By local TV, radio and social media.

“The information can be heard by listening to local TV, radio stations and social media.”
East Broadway Student/Parent Handbook 2026-2027 (School Closing and Delays for Inclement Weather)

A 2 hour delay

On a delay morning every school starts 2 hours late.

“Toledo Public Schools has a School Delay policy when the weather is severe. This policy will allow TPS to delay two hours instead of closing right away to see if weather conditions improve enough for students to come to school.”

The Ohio rule

How Ohio counts a lost day

Ohio requires hours, not days: 910 hours for full day kindergarten through grade 6, 1,001 hours for grades 7 to 12, 455 for half day kindergarten. Only hours that drop a school below the state minimum must be made up, by extending the school year.

The Ohio rules in the agency’s own words, and every Ohio district
