GOOD for them. MD counties are all smaller. Plus they didn't get the same snow or as much? |

Sorry I forgot Loudoun. They will be open tomorrow as well |

But 2/17 is not a makeup. So MD would allow 2/16 and then they would be off. Doesn’t make sense |

Omg, no. MoCo is not unique in how much snow we got https://www.wusa9.com/article/weather/weather-impact/dc-snow-totals-how-much-snow/65-bbf265aa-5d06-435a-bba5-40bd509296d5 |

MCPS could opt to make 2/17 a school day if they wanted to. |

If MCPS is too big to open, how do you explain NYC which is 10x bigger and didn't close for a single day after the storm? They had 1 virtual day on Monday after the storm, and were in person every day after that. They didn't close because there was a stray sidewalk in the Bronx that hadn't been shoveled. They wanted schools to be open, and they opened them. |

| Other districts are opening because they know if looks absurd to close into a week. McPS will make a decision based on conditions out there and how it will impact getting to and from school. That's why it's "better" than other counties. |

They don’t use busses for one. Schools are much closer. |
