Zero chance for school Friday, right?

Between the escalating color fiasco and impending snow/ice, I figure they’ll call a snow day and give themselves another three days to cobble a plan together.

I want the whole district to go virtual briefly, until we’re past the Omicron peak. I hope to God we’re back way before spring.

Right? Keep your kids home if you specifically are that worried. But for the love of god, STOP imposing your anxiety on other people's kids.

Effectively 0% chance, correct.

Omicron will recede in February. Schools that close should reopen fairly quickly.

Re Friday, not much snow is forecast, but freezing temps will make most of it stick.

In normal times, they’d wait until 5am to decide between closure and a delay, but I doubt they have enough Covid-negative personnel to clean up all the schools in 2hrs…

… so a closure is likely. I just hope they don’t wait until 5am to announce a closure!

My HS is open tomorrow. The Red is Fake. Those happened during winter recess and none in school.

But they are giving out take home Covid tests and see what actually kids in school rates of Covid is and then decide

That's the problem. Schools should have opened in Sept 2020. But they didn't.

So yes, a temporary switch to virtual with a return at the end of Jan makes sense. But there is NO TRUST. So, as a parent of a kid who desperately needs in-person instruction, I would rather fight to hold tight for 2-3 weeks and then let cooler heads prevail once people see a peak and then a descent.
