Would MCPS close for Jimmy Carter's funeral on Jan 9?

I know, it doesn't directly affect schools but I'm just curious what people think. It's been declared a federal holiday, and MCPS does now close for inauguration (even when it's not MLK Day).

Doubtful. I don’t think they closed for Bush Sr.

I hope not. We'd have to make it up at spring break or the end of the year.

+1. They didn’t close. We won’t close this time either.
