Snow day Monday?

[Anonymous]

Given the high difficulty in forecasting this storm, I thibk this is going to be a 5 am call depending on what happens overnight Sunday into Monday.

Please explain how your twisted logic makes the weather FCPS's fault. 🤔

Your statement "this is far from acceptable" is especially bizarre. Psychologists would have a field day trying to analyze that deluded train of thought.

Yes. You're the type to yell up to the sky when it snows to ask for the manager.

But please, be my guest. Rage away. It's entertainment for the rest of us.

I find your type to be even more interesting. Do you not want your kids to receive an education and be in school? Or perhaps you're so obtuse that you can't recognize how frustrating this school year has been for kids and parents!

It's been frustrating for teachers as well. We have SOLs scheduled that aren't moving and already don't have enough time to adequately teach all of the material. Every time we have a snow day or delay, we have to adjust our planning to fit things in.

As a teacher I agree I am NOT enthused about another snow day because we’ve had so many disruptions. That being said , if there is one, I get it and I won’t be screaming about how the schools need to be open regardless of weather, because I am capable of understanding that weather inconvenience isn’t on the school district and they’d prefer to have us in school as well.

We've had 4 snow days.

And a week of delays after that which also impacts instruction. And Presidents’ Day. But again, as always, you guys know more about our jobs than we do.

They can't control the weather but they do control the calendar. Scheduling all the days off in Winter is plain stupid when weather events are possible.

It’s very clear that when they made the calendar, none of them zoomed out to look at the 9 month view and counted how many days off there were in total, nor did they consider what the calendar would look like if a few snow days were layered in top of all the other days off. Complete idiots in charge. There’s no reason for FCPS to have so many more days off than other districts in Virginia including Richmond suburbs. This is wha happen when you listen to every little group and don’t have the guts to tell them no.

I'm a teacher as well. 4 snow days and 4 delays shouldn't impact a students ability to pass an SOL.

But there was literally just a teacher upthread saying they are trying to get caught up on where they should be with respect to the SOL’s this school year. All the days off (weather and holidays), delays, early releases, they all add up. And this has been a tough year for sicknesses as well for both teachers and students.

I did not ever say my students wouldn’t pass an SOL. I said it has disrupted instruction.

I'm not who you are talking to and I want my kids to receive an education but sadly FCPS does not seem interested in actually educating anyone so....bring on the snow

Start after Labor Day, fall break, winter break, spring break, federal holidays out first week of June. Many school districts do this but not FCPS. Gotta pander to every group instead of putting education first. A once great system is close to rock bottom.

Def no school Monday, but with temps we’ll be back Tuesday.

[Anonymous]

Yippee!!

[Anonymous]

I think a 2 hour delay is likely, but a snow day is low probability. We will probably get a wet 2 inches.

[Anonymous]

My forecast is saying 3-4 inches sunday, and about an inch on Monday. Def no school.

[Anonymous]

I assume no school because will still be snowing at 5am, 6am, 7am.
