NYC Schools Closed for Upcoming Snowstorm February 1 and 2

Due to the massive snowstorm, Mayor de Blasio has announced that all New York City students will learn remotely Monday, February 1st, 2021 and Tuesday, February 2nd, 2021. Any students that are in blended learning are also expected to pivot to remote learning Monday and Tuesday.

Food distribution sites will be closed while DOE central and field offices will remain open.

While most kids are bummed about the loss of the traditional snow day in this age of remote learning we have a roundup of some snowy day fun. This roundup, Perfect Snow Day Activities for Kids in NYC, is perfect for those stuck inside until it is safe to go outside and break out the sleds and snow gear.
