  • Monday, January 17, 2022

Snow is back in the Chattanooga forecast later this week along with frigid temperatures.

Due to the possibility of icy road conditions Tuesday morning, Hamilton County Schools are closed. Child care sites to remain open are at Battle Academy, East Brainerd Elementary, East Ridge Elementary, Harrison Elementary, Middle Valley Elementary and Red Bank Elementary.

Baylor School will operate on a 10 a.m. start on Tuesday. 

Cleveland City Schools will be closed.  This will include all after school activities as well.  

Other schools closed include Bradley County, Bledsoe County, Dade County, Grundy County, Dayton, Marion County, Meigs County, Polk County, Rhea County, Sequatchie County and Whitfield County.
