How Green Bay calls a snow day
How families hear
By the district website, social media, phone call, email and text message.
“We will use our electronic messaging system to call, email, and text families about the change in the school schedule.”Inclement Weather - Green Bay Area Public School District
A 2 hour delay
On a delay morning every school starts 2 hours late.
“If there is a 2-hour delay, busses will run exactly 2 hours later than their normal times, including the Metro Bus.”
2 built in snow days
On the 2026 to 2027 calendar, listed as “inclement weather days”.
“The District has two (2) inclement weather days built into the school calendar.”Source
Remote learning days
Green Bay has remote learning days in its winter plan.
“Should the District use two inclement weather days this school year, and anticipate a need for additional weather days (e.g., severe cold weather over multiple days), the District will revisit whether or not to implement asynchronous learning days”Source
Making up a lost day
After two weather days, asynchronous learning days or minutes added to the daily schedule.
“the District will revisit whether or not to implement asynchronous learning days rather than adding minutes to the daily schedule.”Source
