NORTH PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) — Two-hour delays are no longer an option on bad weather days in North Providence.

In a meeting last Wednesday, the North Providence School Committee voted to eliminated the option of a two-hour delay, allowing only the choice to cancel school or issue a one-hour delay because of inclement weather.

One school committee member says two-hours is too much class time missed to still count it towards the 180-day requirement.
