Closure decisions are typically posted by 5:30 a.m. on the district website, automated parent communication system, and local news partners. Cleveland Metropolitan School District uses two-hour delays for borderline events and full closures for storms with significant ice risk or accumulation exceeding district safe-operation thresholds.
