HARTFORD, Conn. — Dozens of schools, most in eastern Connecticut, have closed or delayed opening Monday as they continue to remove up to 2 feet of snow that fell Saturday.
The frigid temperatures, which fell below zero in places early Monday, also may have factored into school officials’ decisions.
“The amount of snow was too much for the city staff to remove in just one day,” Kristen E. Stringfellow, superintendent of schools in Norwich, wrote in a letter to families and staff Sunday.
