What school will be the wolf and what school(s) will be the sheep?

A school closure for Monday is a no-brainer decision that everyone knows is coming. How fast a school actually sends that email is very far down on my list of priorities for determining a good fit for my child.

Hint: most of these schools don’t make the decision entirely on their own. Peer schools check in with one another and form a consensus. Closing for Monday is a no-brainer. But as the week goes on and reopening becomes a consideration, the school administrations will be talking to one another before making announcements.

So why were Big 3 schools like STA and NCS so far ahead of lesser institutions in their timing? Checkmate.

Lesser institutions? Are you even listening to yourself?
