Cleveland, OH
Northeast Ohio school closings and delays for Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2024; Cleveland city schools close
CLEVELAND, Ohio — School districts throughout Northeast Ohio, including Cleveland Metropolitan School District, are canceling classes for Wednesday, with forecasts calling for dangerously cold temperatures early in the morning.
The National Weather Service has issued a wind chill advisory for much of Northeast Ohio, including Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lake, Medina, Portage, Stark, Summit and Trumbull counties. Forecasts say it will be about 5 to 6 degrees during the time children usually wait for bus pickup or walk to school, but wind chills will make it feel like minus-16.
The advisory is in effect until noon Wednesday. Temperatures eventually will climb into the low 20s, but it will remain windy throughout the day, with gusts up to 31 mph.
Here is a list of school closings and delays from WKYC Channel 3. All schools listed are closed Wednesday unless otherwise noted.

Cleveland mother accused of burying daughters in suitcases prompts new focus on parenting bill
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – A Cleveland mother was charged with two counts of murder after her daughters were found in suitcases partially buried in a park near E. 165th and Midland Ave last week.
In the days that followed, we spoke with DeShaun Chatman, who is the father of 8-year-old Mila Chatman.
He said he’s been trying for years to get access to his daughter but felt the courts and Child Protective Services (CPS) weren’t working with him.
There is a law in Columbus working its way through the process trying to clarify parenting roles and rights.
Senate Bill 174 (SB174) was passed in November and is currently sitting waiting in a House committee.
At the time the bill was passed one of the bill’s sponsors, Senator Theresa Gavarone (R-Bowling Green) said, “No one is a winner in parenting disputes. But if anyone is, it should be the kids. By passing this legislation, the Ohio Senate is taking the first step toward encouraging cooperation between separated parents.”
The bill has a number of provisions looking to make it easier for a judge to give equal rights to both the mother and father.
For example, it would prohibit a judge from giving preference to a father or a mother based on a person’s financial status or gender.
It also requires a parenting plan be filed that shows parenting and decisions will be a shared responsibility regardless of marital status.
There is also a prevision that would allow unmarried parents to file a complaint at no charge, requesting the allocation of parenting rights and responsibilities upon the father establishing parentage and provides an expedited hearing and temporary orders.
