How is it going with the buses today?

[Anonymous]

Several homeowners did not shovel sidewalks, thus forcing elementary school kids out into the roughly plowed roads to walk to the bus stop. I'm pretty annoyed at the selfishness of these homeowners.

Any accident reports?

My kid reported that it was safe, just slow. Had to navigate around cars in a narrow lane. Said most busses arrived late, but everyone was safe. I will take it — kids need to be in school.

Etc.

My kid's three AP teachers have been sending out increasingly agitated emails about needing to finish the curriculum before AP exams in May. There will definitely be intensive instruction today, despite the shortened day.

There is a whole world of school outside of elementary, PP.

+1. Some of my kids’ teachers were quietly trying to assign reading last week even though they weren’t supposed to. It never seems to amaze me that some people on the forum think that their experience is the only one that occurs.

I walked one kid to school. Plenty of ice on certain unshoveled sidewalks but it was fine. The kids I saw at drop off were smilier than normal and happy to get back.

Didn’t receive any emails from my bus riding kid’s school that Bus X or Bus Y was late, so sounds like it was as smooth as could be expected.

AP is not the end all be all. Some parents should let their kids figure it out by now. If they can't, maybe kid shouldnt be taking AP.

Well with Honors for all, we only have AP left for any sort of rigor

Here is that AP class / exam poster again. They found this thread, too. Sigh.

Signed poster who has been there done that with AP classes and exams

And yet... your post was not useful in the least, whereas the PP's actually added to the discussion that there would definitely be instruction today, at least for certain high school classes.

I don't know why you're so rabidly against people pointing out that kids are having real classes. That's odd.

No. They are NOT having real classes.maybe next week. Stfu.

Our kids did.

We also had teachers sending out prep and work as well as scheduled tests. The snow didn't change or slow things down.

Parking structure at BCC was blocked off to the usual drop-off route so all the kids were getting out on the street. Got very backed up. Will adjust our route for tomorrow.
