Dozens of school districts have pre-emptively called school off Friday ahead of the snowstorm that is expected to drop more snow throughout the day after several rounds of snow have already blanketed large swaths of the Front Range, Eastern Plains and the mountains. So skiers and students alike are celebrating, but parents? Maybe not.

Nearly all the schools in metro Denver will be closed, Friday, Nov. 8. And some districts on the Eastern Plains, like the Limon School district, will have a second snow day in a row.


Here’s a non-exhaustive list of schools that have canceled classes on Friday. Districts will contact parents directly and will include closure information on their websites.

  • Aurora Public Schools
  • Cherry Creek Schools
  • Jeffco Public Schools
  • Denver Public Schools 
  • Douglas County School District
  • Englewood Schools
  • Littleton Public Schools
  • Sheridan School District
  • Limon School District
  • Elizabeth School District
