One of the districts facing closure Thursday because of the wintry weather is the Rush-Henrietta Central School District.

The county — located in the southern part of Monroe County — said the snow day was weather-related.

Counties in Genesee and Wyoming counties have also been closed due to the state of emergency – and 10 to 20 inches of lake elevation means snow will fall there through Friday. Among them are the Batavia City School District, the Byron-Bergen Central School District and the Warsaw Central School District. The Caledonia-Mumford Central School District in Livingston County is also closed Thursday due to weather.

Genesee Community College also closed all campuses Thursday due to weather, college officials announced.
