Storm leads to Minnesota school closures, including all in St. Paul, pre-K through 5th in Minneapolis

A weekend snowstorm blanketed parts of Minnesota with more than a foot of snow, with dozens of schools and organizations expected to stay closed Monday.

St. Paul Public Schools says classes are canceled Monday, and it won’t be an E-learning day. 

“Discovery Club and Adult Basic Education will be closed. All other athletic events and after-school activities will be canceled, with exceptions made on a case-by-case basis,” district officials said. “Varsity Athletics may continue as scheduled at the discretion of the Site Administrator.”  

Minneapolis Public Schools have declared Monday a severe weather day, with no school for students in pre-K through fifth grade. Middle and high school students will have an e-learning day.

State officials have issued a no travel advisory in southern Minnesota, and Gov. Tim Walz has authorized the Minnesota National Guard to support emergency operations.

Hundreds of flights have also been canceled at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, and snow emergencies are in effect in Minneapolis, St. Paul and several other cities across the state.
