The first snowflakes have officially fallen in Portage! Whether you are feeling excited for the season of snow and cold or you're dreading the icy roads and freezing temps, winter is right around the corner. 

When it snows hard enough to make winter driving unsafe, PPS may decide to cancel school. The District will communicate using the following methods: 

    • Automated calls and texts to PPS families and staff 

    • Push notifications through the Portage Public Schools app (download links below)

    • District website

    • Media Outlets: WWMT, WOODTV, FOX17, WZZM, and 590 WKZO Radio

    • Social Media

Prepare for any possible future snow days by following the District social media and downloading our PPS app: Android https://bit.ly/3OXzqri & iPhone https://apple.co/42pWwtJ
