Weather Related Closings/Delays/Early Dismissals

Philadelphia E&T follows the direction of the School District of Philadelphia in the event of weather related closures.

For example, if you hear the message "ALL PUBLIC SCHOOLS are CLOSED", we will also be closed. If you hear "ALL PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE OPEN", we will also be open. We will always update our social media sites with this information.
