And yet we are told that we are the ones with the problem if we aren't as anxious and risk-adverse as they are. |

Ugh, everyone is so obsessed with sports around here. I don’t care about your kids’ basketball games! FCPS is for school, not sports. If they don’t have their buildings safe for community use, that’s their decision. |

What are you complaining about? FCPS buildings were open until 12noon. You’re here saying everyone is “freaking paranoid” over ONE HOUR. Get some help, please. |

I was thinking maybe a delay due to difficult with buses in the morning. If the roads don’t get some treatment and stay slick, there’s an even better chance at a delay. |

It was ridiculous to cancel basketball games before 4pm. |

No it wasn’t. Did you not see the heavy sleet around 2:45 pm? We don’t need a bunch of idiots on the road. |

Some children need/want exercise. That’s a good thing. |

Yes, but they were safe from 8am -12 pm for churches to meet. The County has elected not to build enough separate community buildings and to use public school property for community activities instead. The school buildings are not only for school use. They are quick to close on the weekends however b/c FCPS is often feuding with NCS. |

| There are Some People who *always* want FCPS to close on the weekends at the slightly hint of bad weather, b/c it makes no difference to their lives AND they are secretly hoping that this means Monday will be a closure or delay. I suspect these people work for FCPS as even the students want the buildings open on weekends for their activities. |

Not as many as the kids who were kept constantly on edge believing a sneeze would wipe out their family and who were isolated from friends for months. Not as many as the teachers who had to deal with these kids' anxieties, social regression and academic problems and then got blamed when they couldn't work miracles. Not as many as the parents who actively kept their kids isolated and anxious and now have to deal with the aftermath. I suggest apologizing to the kid, explaining that everyone makes mistakes and then actively working on undoing the damage. Snapping at strangers online because they accidentally hit your sore spot won't help. Anyway, FCPS may close one or two days this week. Figure out a plan if you don't already have one. |

| Custodians were called in today, apparently, so maybe they're leaning towards opening on time. It's ridiculous to me that they weren't off on a federal holiday. |

How do you know? That's cap. School- wide or a specific school (ex: emergency call to repair the hvac or the like)? What would there be to clean if they were just there on Friday? I cant imagine that the handful of the Sat rec leagues' gym use or the random church use before 12 noon yesterday warranted custodians to report today . |

Custodians do some snow clean-up around the entrances after snow. |

“Cap” or crap? You know that people on this forum are teachers, admin, and front office staff who communicate with custodians, right? |

”Cap” lol. I know because I drove past London Towne Elementary and the custodians are literally there shoveling snow. |
