No they absolutely were not. Complete waste of a day. |
According to HS DD, not even close. |
I hope they showed movies. |
YMMV. |
No idea. I didn't let my kids go. It's a mess with roads around us and they had been under the weather anyway and haven't even enjoyed any snow ![]() There was a difference in reporting absences for MS and HS. HS kid somehow automatically got excused absence while MS got in-excused one and I had to submit a medical form because there is also illness involved. I was swamped at work to do the forms early in the day and hoped I didn't have to do this and they won't do the in-excused absences today. But it looks like it was an ordinary day for MS, while something must have been diff for the HS. |
HS Teacher here:
29/30 present 1st Period (although quite a few late) 28/30 present 3rd Period 24/27 present 5th Period Off 7th Period We were able to move on and start new content today. |
Awesome. If the student parking lot and kiss n ride line is any barometer, our school with attendance issues were apparently packed more than usual. |
Thank you! Glad teachers are moving ahead. |
This just one teacher. |
Another HS teacher:
27/30 24/30 29/30 Pretty average. Thankfully I had a really gentle first day back from break lesson planned, so I was able to squeeze it into the shortened period. A teacher next door has all seniors, and was under 50% attendance for today, so I think a lot used it as a skip day. |
Glad your streets were plowed and you have flexibility at work or SAH to be able to take your kids to school on a weird last minute schedule. Ours are icy hills with piles of snow/ice and not passable by school buses. And I don't get paid time off or able to reschedule work meetings based on a last minute whim to reopen the schools on a Friday for a short day. |
Thank you for your update. |
+1,000 Reid and the rest of the screaming parents clambering for schools to open are tone deaf |
Yep
All there in both my kids classes |
