If there is a school closure because of snow, staff will receive a Connect-Ed telephone call from the District (in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Haitian Creole). Snow emergency information can also be found on this website, by calling 311, on local cable channels 15 and/or 16 and on television channels 4, 5, 7, 13, 25, and 56.  Snow emergency information is also broadcast on the radio (WBZ 1030 AM and WBUR 90.9 FM).  REMEMBER!  There is no parking on the even sides of the streets during snow emergencies.
