Closure decisions for Schoenbar Middle School are almost always made at the district level. If Ketchikan Gateway Borough School District closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Ketchikan Gateway Borough School District forecast).
Town districts sit between urban and rural conditions: main routes are usually cleared early, but outlying pickups can stay hazardous well past sunrise.
Alaska averages about 75 inches of snow per year. Alaskan schools rarely close for snow alone — extreme wind chill and ice storms are the primary triggers.
We score the live forecast at this location against the factors that drive closure calls: snowfall total and intensity, when the heaviest accumulation lands relative to the morning commute, ice and freezing rain, wind chill, and how confident the forecast models are. You get a probability for a full closure, a two-hour delay, and an early dismissal.
This is an independent forecast, not an official announcement. Confirm any closure with Ketchikan Gateway Borough School District before acting on it.
