Milwaukee Public Schools, suburban districts area schools cancel Tuesday classes

As the weekend's winter storm watch tapers off into the MLK day, some confusion remains over what school districts are open.

According to the National Weather Service, snow is winding down across southern Wisconsin, shifting the weekend's winter storm watch into a wind chill advisory.

Monday also marks the birthday of celebrated civil rights leader Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., a federal holiday and national day of service, which many school districts commemorate with a day off for students and faculty. As this time of year also falls near the halfway point of the school year, many districts also close for professional development days.

Many school districts have canceled classes for Tuesday due to cold weather. This list will focus on schools and districts in the Milwaukee metro area and might not be comprehensive. Please check back for updates. Other closings lists can be found here.
