UPDATE: East Haven Schools Now Closed for Wednesday

The early morning wintry mix of snow and sleet at first led to a delayed opening for East Haven Public Schools, but the district has now decided to close and cancel all classes for the day.

Update at 8 a.m.

East Haven Family Resource Center's preschool and playgroup classes are closed as well for the day today.

Update at 7:35 a.m.

With reports coming in via social media that the roads around town are still quite slick out, East Haven Public Schools has no decided to close for the day.

The district originally had set a two-hour delay, but it appears conditions around town regarding the roads are bad enough to change that to closures.

A parent told East Haven Patch a short time ago that the auto-dial calls are now going out to students' families with the news regarding the district's status change.

Original Story

The winter storm that began to drop a mix of snow and sleet very early this morning has led to a two-hour delay for all East Haven Public Schools today.

East Haven Adult Learning will also be operating on a two-hour delay this morning.

Snow began to fall before dawn, and according to the National Weather Service, snow, sleet, and rain will continue through 2 p.m.

Little if any additional daytime snow accumulations are expected on top of what has already fallen for the shoreline. Highs near 38 degrees are predicted for Wednesday.

A Winter Weather Advisory for the area was issued Tuesday afternoon, and is in effect until 4 p.m. Wednesday.

I agree Jack is a good man. He however needs to better explain his financial problems. ForeclosureRead More doesn't go forward due to a mistake. Stand up and tell the truth. If you fell behind and got back on track tell us.

Gene, Jack is your party's pick, so what else are you to say. As to Jack, if he is anything likeRead More his father he IS a good man. But being just a good man doesn't cut it in todays small world politics. Jack has issues he needs to explain and I am sure when he time comes he will. But as to this article, I wouldn't expect anything else from the SHADOW. Wouldn't want him backing me for anything.

I asked the question and you gave me the answer I was looking for, and I thank you for that. As toRead More the rest of your dribble, doesn't deserve a response for EVERYONR knows all about the true Gene aka ******** Ruocco.

Richard, the Mayor kicked the CEO of the company that had the contract out of his office less than aRead More month after he won the election. The contract was with the town not the BOE. And if you think the only thing to check is if the panels are dirty, then it isn't worth answering you. A large investment of tax dollars was made and it is paying off with lower electric bills. The systems delivering these savings need to be checked, that is why people who were smart enough to sign a maintenance agreement did just that. Ask the BOE how the chiller replacement is going at the High School; due to lack of maintenance they lost two chillers that should have lasted at least 10 to 15 more years. Penny wise and dollar foolish is what this is all about, not the election year, but what else could we expect from you Richard. You have become the cheer leader of the administration.

Boy, you just know it's an election year. Gene, one question, when was this contract stopped?Read More Just now or some time ago, but seeing its getting "close' to November you just thought you would bring this up. Besides, shouldn't your question be aimed at the B of E, not the Mayor. And what is to be maintained anyway beside washing the panals now and then? You just keep us all informed now Gene.
