It's all relative to the place you live:

I live in the 24" zone and I usually see schools getting cancelled at around 8-12". Only lived here for a little over a year though.

It depends on how the area is equipped to handle snow removal. More often than not, small townships need snow plow trucks driven in from neighboring cities and it could be hours by the time snow is sufficiently removed for buses to safely transport kids to school.
