How to Check the NBC10 Boston Closing List

The NBC10 Boston school closing system is automated and updates as soon as a superintendent makes the call. You can access the official list through several channels:

Online Dashboard: Visit the NBC10 Boston School Closings page for a searchable, alphabetized list of every district in the region.
Mobile App: Download the NBC10 Boston app and enable “Weather Alerts” to receive push notifications if your specific district announces a change.
On-Air Ticker: During morning news broadcasts (starting at 4:00 AM), closings and delays scroll across the bottom of the screen.

Understanding the Labels

When checking the list, you will typically see one of three statuses:

Status	What It Means
Closed	No school for students or staff; all after-school activities are typically canceled.
2-Hour Delay	School starts exactly two hours later than the usual time. Bus pickups are also delayed by two hours.
No PM Activities	School is held as normal, but all sports, clubs, and evening programs are canceled due to incoming weather.

Why Decisions are Made

Superintendents typically consult with the NBC10 Boston weather team and local DPW officials between 4:30 AM and 5:30 AM. The decision is based on:

Road Safety: Can buses navigate side streets and hills safely?
Sidewalk Conditions: Is it safe for students who walk to school?
Building Status: Are school parking lots plowed and are heating systems operational?
