Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceLake Pontchartrain Elementary School is a elementary school in LaPlace, Louisiana, part of St. John the Baptist Parish Schools. The forecast above uses the school's own coordinates, so it reflects conditions at this campus rather than an average across the wider area.
Closure decisions for Lake Pontchartrain Elementary School are almost always made at the district level. If St. John the Baptist Parish Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the St. John the Baptist Parish Schools forecast).
Suburban districts depend heavily on bus fleets covering a wide area of residential streets, which are plowed after main roads. Side-street conditions at 5 AM often decide the call.
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 St. John the Baptist Parish Schools before acting on it.
