TOLEDO, OH (WTOL) - Summer vacation for students may have just started but Toledo Public Schools is tweaking the back to school schedule already.
TPS said on Thursday that district schools will now be closed on Friday August 17. The reason behind this is so that all staff members can have a Professional Development Day that Friday.

- Thursday, August 16: Teacher Workday (no students); Elementary Open House Night
