They don't close for rain.

Yea they did just this school year in anticipation of a big rain event on a Saturday that never happened.

The anticipated weather was ice. At the last minute, the temperatures warmed up.

Let it go. You seriously have a problem.

+1. Plus it ws Saturday! How exhausting to deal with these nonstop complainers.

Not complaining. Just pointing out that if they can close for rain, they can easily do a 2 hr early release due to eclipse for safety.

Oh, of course. It’s exactly the same to tell a few hundred people to stay home on a Saturday as it is for 50K elementary students to have to have arrangements made for an early release pick up.

Please stop. You sound more stupid with each post.

You sound like you use school as a babysitter. Two hours early is that much of an inconvenience for you?

Actually I’m a teacher in a Title 1 school. Not everyone can drop everything to make arrangements for an early release. Having their kids in school does allow many of our parents to work a hourly job that puts food on the table. If they don’t work, they don’t get paid. Again, you sound more stupid with each post.

Safety trumps the needs of working parents always, sorry. It is safer to have an early dismissal when there is a solar eclipse happening outside at dismissal.

what makes it unsafe?

Considering FCPS isn’t allowing classes outside during the eclipse, I’ll let you figure out why dismissing during an eclipse may also be unsafe.

Is the eclipse going to interfere with brain waves? If not, why is this an issue that your child's teacher scheduled a test during the eclipse?

It’ll interfere with me picking my child up early.

If you want to pick up your child early, do it. Your child can make up the test later.

If a parent found out that for TWO DAYS (due to keeping blocks on the same schedule), a teacher did nothing but fluff in order to accommodate for the eclipse, they'd complain. But if that teacher actually taught and assessed content, parents would complain because they can't pick up their children early. It'd be another reason to complain about teachers.

.

Before anyone comments that blocks don't need to kept on the same schedule, let me explain why I need to keep my blocks aligned:

On Red days, I teach one section of Subject 1, one section of Subject 2, and one section of Subject 3. On Blue days, I teach one section of Subject 1 and one section of Subject 2.

Teaching three different subjects is very difficult anyway. If I allow my two blocks of Subject 1 and two blocks of Subject 2 to get misaligned, it is a nightmare for me as a teacher. In order to be my most effective, I need to keep those blocks aligned with each other.

Think of it this way (though these aren't the subjects I teach, this is similar to what I actually teach):
-- Subject 1 is AP Computer Science
-- Subject 2 is Algebra 2
-- Subject 3 is Geometry HN

So your needs trump student safety? Who tf gives a test on a Monday anyway?! When we literally have only been back 3 days from Spring Break.

Trumping student safety? What on earth are you talking about? How is keeping blocks aligned at all relayed to stident safety?

In high school, most teachers give tests on Mondays at some point in the marking period. It is pretty common to have at least one test in one class every day of the week. And time back from Spring Break is irrelevant. We continue with curriculum and assessment.

Giving a test during an eclipse is stupid as many kids will already be out or picked up early so they can view the eclipse. Don’t give me this crap about needing the test on Monday during an eclipse so the blocks can be “aligned.” So ridiculous. And a complete lack of common sense.

This is blatantly false information. Please stop spreading it. If you’ve bothered to read this thread, you’d know that FCPS is fine with students going outside as long as they have approved glasses. Many schools that were able to secure glasses have communicated this to families.

Why don't you just taking your kids out early yourself? You don't need permission to do so.

I will but there are going to be so many other kids leaving it will be a huge hassle and line I’m sure.

So... just as there would be if there was an official early dismissal??

There wouldn’t be a line to pick up early if there were an early dismissal, nitwit. Kids could ride the bus home or be picked up ant kiss n ride as usual and be home before the eclipse even started.

Our school is not allowing kids outside during the eclipse period. It depends what region you’re in apparently. FCPS isn’t consistent yet again.

There is nothing different - it is as safe as the days when we don’t have an eclipse.

No, they are consistent. If your school has glasses, it’s fine to take students out. That expectation applies to all schools. Why should schools have to stay inside if they were able to get glasses? We got a donation and everyone is going out just before dismissal.

Have you ever heard of a person being injured during an eclipse?

Sure, if you Google it, something will come up, but it’s highly unlikely.

🤦‍♀️ Yet somehow we’ve all managed to survive decades of eclipses without early dismissals and no one going blind. It’s this catastrophic-sizing of everything that makes having nice things nearly impossible.

I dont know my history of early releases and solar eclipses, cant really say what happened for decades. Last eclipse my kids were infants or un born. Other school districts this year, whose dismissal coincidences with the eclipse are making adjustments. I know of several dismissing early, one closing, and one staying 20 minutes later. The point in this thread is the county isnt planning or communicating. And most schools dismiss at peak viewing time.

Even if they want to do nothing, they should communicate that. If they want parents to pick their kids up early if they chose, say something about how best to do that. I have no idea if my child's school will be indoors, if they are allowed to view, or anything. Its odd.

Where are all these districts located?

Im pp and every district i mentioned is VA, but not all northern va

Zero. Nothing at all. Fairhill Elementary.

Yes but the line and hassle I was talking about in my PP is the line for parents to check our kids early from the office since there won’t be an early dismissal. Many parents are going to be checking their kids out early tomorrow. When you check out kids early, you have to go in physically and sign them out from the office. If it was early dismissal you wouldn’t have to do that as they would already be home and there would be no reason to pick them up early. It’s going to be a mess tomorrow. DUH!!!!!
