LCPS parents in my workplace were thrilled with the call. Hopefully they are in touch with leadership to express their appreciation.

Ok?

My point is LCPS obviously takes into account more stakeholders than just upset teachers who wanted to be in their yoga pants. And so far as any students were “freaking out” it was probably because their teachers were telling them it was too dangerous to be in school.

LCPS has made all the same calls this year except for today. A teacher from there even responded to a thread that it was a waste of a day. Everyone was kept safe today one way or another. This is not unique to FCPS. Every other Va and MD is complaining about everything as well.

Your level of delusion is extraordinary. If you seriously think teachers have any say in school calendars or delays/early releases, you are extraordinarily misinformed.

The teachers weren't pushing this. My own work made us leave the building by 2 today.

Blaming the teachers for decisions on weather is just so ridiculously tiresome.

Who said a say? Their wishes were prioritized over students safety in FCPS. Not LCPS. So FCPS lost another day and LCPS lost 45 min.

What are you talking about? School is in session on March 27. And are you seriously complaining about one of those Fridays being spring break?

Whiners gonna whine.

The teachers weren't responsible for this.

Stuff was canceled all over the DMV. FCPS and teachers had nothing to do with that. My friend's private daycare in DC was closed, my work and my husband's work sent us home (nothing to do with FCPS in either case). The weather listed a higher probability of a bad storm and tons of.places reacted.

The teacher hate is so ridiculous.

It's an early release. It isn't remotely close to a full day and you know it

Don’t worry. After the tornado drill most teachers just put on a movie in LCPS. The kids weren’t paying attention to us anyway.

Yep and now we’re all at the mercy of Twitter amateurs hyping everything up for social media.

This is what I am noticing. None of them do actual forecasting... just "this model shows this" and "that model shows that". None of their posts are framed in terms of likelihood of occurrence. Then local decision makers see the posts and freak out.

Their wishes? Are you seriously implying that teachers were "polled" and their "wishes" were influential in the decision to close early?

Your hatred towards teachers is concerning, as are your paranoia and delusions. I hope you are receiving mental health help.
