How to Find FOX 11 School Closings

FOX 11 provides several ways to stay informed so you don’t miss that early morning announcement.

1. Online Searchable List

The most comprehensive resource is the FOX 11 Online Closings Page. This list is alphabetized and updated in real-time. You can filter by:

  • K-12 Schools (Public and Private)

  • Daycare Centers and Preschools

  • Universities and Technical Colleges

  • Churches and Community Organizations

2. The FOX 11 News & Weather Apps

For parents on the go, the WLUK FOX 11 News App offers push notifications for major district announcements.

Tip: Go to settings in the app and toggle “Weather Alerts” to receive a notification the moment a “Winter Weather Advisory” or “Blizzard Warning” is issued for your county.

3. On-Air Morning Coverage

During Good Day Wisconsin (starting at 4:30 AM), the “Closing Ticker” scrolls across the bottom of the screen. The FOX 11 weather team also provides live updates on road conditions from the FOX 11 Storm Tracker vehicle.


Decision Timeline: How it Works

Superintendents in Northeast Wisconsin typically follow a strict timeline to ensure student safety:

  • 3:00 AM – 4:30 AM: Road crews and bus company officials scout rural and city roads.

  • 4:45 AM: Superintendents participate in a conference call with the FOX 11 weather team to discuss timing of ice or snow.

  • 5:30 AM: The goal for most districts is to have a final decision posted to FOX 11 by this time to alert families before buses begin their routes.

Common Status Definitions

If you see your school on the list, it will likely fall into one of these categories:

Status Impact on Your Day
Closed No school for students. All after-school sports and clubs are typically canceled.
2-Hour Delay School starts 2 hours later than usual. Buses arrive 2 hours later. No AM 4K/Pre-K.
Early Release School ends early (usually between 12:00 PM and 1:30 PM) to get students home before weather worsens.
Virtual Learning Day Buildings are closed, but students are expected to log in for remote instruction.
