...why? For snow that stopped falling 24 hours earlier?

Inevitable ice forming… wind chills below 0. It will definitely be at least a delay tomorrow

So they don’t have to pay staff overtime to come and clean up snow. So they don’t have to find staff willing to come in and do it.

SSL hours? Strong teens who live within walking distance or close by wanting a workout when they can't get inside the school facilities? Other ideas?

If today was a school day, should be closed. For ice. It's slippery out there right now. Tomorrow should be a delay to allow people and buses to de ice and safely get out on the roads. District is 0-2 thus far on making the right call tho. So, who knows.

It’s not about today, during the day. It’s about the fact that there will be black ice on the ground as kids are walking to school and the bus in 0 degree windchills tomorrow.

County and state should treat the roads and you should bundle your kids up. It's winter, it gets cold. Stop looking for excuses for your kids not to go to school.

And yet roads and sidewalks especially won’t be treated. At least delay to make sure it’s fully light out when kids are walking and driving to school.

After the last bad call and multiple bus accidents, they’d better be safe than sorry this time.

Besides the liability issues here, even if you could get staff (which you’d have to pay) and kids to come out early enough to do this, you can’t Mobilize this fast enough to prevent closure for an overnight/early morning weather event. Plus you’d be asking teens and parents to drive on potentially untreated roads and what parent wants their inexperienced teen drivers doing this. (As of 8:30 this morning road treatment was not yet completed in the county).

Why just a delay? Someone could slip. Kids without jackets might get old waiting for buses. We really need to close out an abundance of caution. Teachers really need a break, too.

No, teachers need to report to work and teach their students. Teachers already have winter coming very soon.
