Winter weather can significantly disrupt daily routines, and for many, that means keeping a close eye on school delays and closings. Here at WFIN, we understand the importance of staying informed, especially when it comes to your children's education. We strive to provide you with the most up-to-the-minute information regarding school closures and delays in our listening area.

How We Gather Information

WFIN utilizes a multi-faceted approach to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of our school closing and delay reports. We actively monitor:

• Direct communication with school districts: We maintain direct contact with school administrators and public relations offices across our coverage area. This allows for immediate updates as decisions are made.
• Official school websites and social media: We continually monitor official school websites and social media channels for announcements regarding closures and delays.
• Local emergency management agencies: Collaboration with local emergency management agencies ensures we receive information about weather-related disruptions that may impact school operations.
