NEW YORK —School buildings will close again Tuesday for snow but will reopen the next day, Mayor de Blasio announced Monday, the New York Daily News reported.
Remote classes were in session Monday and will continue Tuesday even with buildings closed.
“Parents, so you can plan, I wanted to make sure you knew this as early as possible,” de Blasio said in a Monday morning press conference.

“No school today, no school tomorrow in-person, we’re back in-person Wednesday but every day, of course, will have remote learning.”
Only elementary schools, preschools and District 75 schools have been open for in-person learning and some of those were already shuttered because of multiple COVID-19 cases, the Daily News reported.
Food distribution sites, afterschool programs, and city-run Learning Bridges childcare sites were also closed Monday and will stay shut Tuesday.
