School Closing Information:

There are times when de Paul must cancel classes due to inclement winter weather. Should that decision be made, you will learn of it via the major television and radio stations of the Metro Louisville area. The de Paul School will be mentioned by name if we decide to cancel classes . As an independent school, we may not necessarily follow the decisions made by other school districts or corporations.
