In Newfoundland and Labrador, NTV News is the definitive source for winter weather coverage and school status updates. When the North Atlantic brings heavy snow and high winds, NTV provides real-time tracking to keep families safe and informed.

Current School Closings and Delays Status

How to Check the Latest Closings

NTV coordinates with school districts (NLSchools) to provide the most accurate data. You can stay updated through these primary methods:

  1. NTV.ca Weather Portal: The official website features a dedicated weather and closures section that is updated as soon as announcements are made by school administrators.

  2. The Morning Show: Tune in to NTV beginning at 6:00 AM for the live ticker. Chief Meteorologist Eddie Sheerr provides context on whether a morning delay is likely to turn into an all-day closure.

  3. OZFM School Info: As part of the same broadcasting family, OZFM maintains a real-time searchable database that allows you to filter by school name or region.

Common School Status Terms

When monitoring NTV’s reports, you will see the following classifications:

Status Instruction for Students
Closed for the Morning School is closed until noon. A status update is typically provided at 10:30 AM.
Closed for the Day No classes. All extracurricular activities and community rentals are usually cancelled.
Delayed Opening School will open at a specific time (e.g., 10:00 AM). Buses will run on a similar delay.
Early Dismissal Students are sent home early due to deteriorating weather conditions mid-day.

The Decision Process

The decision to close schools is typically made by 5:30 AM. Superintendents evaluate several factors before notifying NTV:

  • Bus Safety: The ability of buses to navigate narrow, snow-cleared streets.

  • Visibility: Whether blowing snow creates “whiteout” conditions for student walkers.

  • Power Outages: In the event of high-wind storms, schools without power or heat will be closed immediately.

Tips for Parents

  • Refresh Often: Online lists are refreshed every 5 minutes during active storms.

  • Check “Family of Schools”: Sometimes an entire “Family” (a group of schools feeding into one high school) will close together.

  • Update Your Contact Info: Ensure your school has your correct phone number for automated text alerts.
