Suffield public schools were closed on Thursday after fuel in the buses froze.
The school district originally planned on a 90-minute delay, but fuel froze in the buses at the M&J buys yard, gelling up and preventing the buses from running properly, according to the superintendent's office.
As a result, school officials decided not to chance it, because going forward with as planned would mean the buses could stall with students on board.
The elementary school also postponed a ping pong game between fifth graders and their parents until next Thursday.
School officials said the buses should be up and running Friday.
Many school districts around the state opened late because of extreme cold. Check the list here.
