Some KY school districts call an 'old fashioned' snow day 'for a little fun.' Valarie Honeycutt Spears, Lexington Herald-Leader Jan. 28—Wolfe County Superintendent Kenny Bell was among the Kentucky school chiefs who had decided that canceling school because of snow this winter was unnecessary because COVID-19 has resulted in daily remote learning. But as snow began to fall and winter weather advisories were called for Kentucky Wednesday night, Bell changed his mind. "I am declaring tomorrow a good 'old fashioned ' snow day. No school in person, no school virtually. Let the kids get some physical activity, much needed, and mental health break day playing in the snow," Bell said.
