FCPS closed Monday

[Anonymous]

I don’t understand it’s been 7 days since we had snow. Why haven’t the schools been cleared of snow? Why are they taking tomorrow to clear the snow and not Monday-Sunday of this week. I really don’t get it. What are we going to do close until march? Someone is not contracted for snow removal for the schools? I’m astonished.

Stop.

The single poster who keeps posting this on multiple threads is so tiresome.

There's dozens of us. Dozens.

It’s just jealously.

DP and no, there’s not.

There are just a couple LOUD posters who love to antagonize teachers.

It’s tiresome and it’s time for you to stop. You aren’t ticking off lazy teachers. You are frustrating the hard-working ones who sacrifice for YOUR family all of the time.

So grow up.

You're taking a paycheck from MY taxes. You work for me. So deal with it.

YOUR taxes? Not mine? Not everyone else's? You're a buffoon. Learn what a society means, you megalomaniac.

The problem is there's too many bus stops nobody has cleared. I don't see them all getting cleared tomorrow though.

I don’t understand I got this text? Says schools open on time?!

All FCPS classes are canceled on Monday, February 2. Schools and offices will open on time. Beyond the Bell and SACC centers will be open. More updates available on the FCPS website (www.fcps.edu/alerts) and the FCPS mobile app (www.fcps.edu/app).

We do not have bus service (that pesky 1 mile radius rule). There is no way the kids can make it to the high school. The sidewalk area next to the main crosswalk to cross a major road, is full of ice. We drove past the high school this morning. The parking spots are cleared, but the sidewalks leading into the school are packed with ice. Do you expect the kids to walk on the aslphalt, along with a bunch if new drivers? Also, what is up with people assuming teachers would have to help clear the ice/snow!? That is ridiculous!

Reid expects the parents will do it. Why not the teachers?

It is not their job! Period, end of story. My kid has a teacher that walks with a cane. Should he go out, cut through the ice and shovel it?! Should that job be only for the younger healthier teachers? Did they go to college for 5+ years to end up being forced to clean up the snow? They didn’t sign up for that job! You signed up to have kids.

It’s not the parents job either, but that didn’t stop Reid from telling them to get out and shovel.

Then you owe me more money.

I work six days a week, usually close to 70 hours. I request that you start paying me overtime pay.

And, since you claim to be my employer, I expect you to “deal” with this quickly.

We can negotiate when your next contract is up

It's not my fault you aren't able to complete your work in the designated hours.

Why do bus stops need to be cleared. Weve been going out in the snow and ice all week. We can wear appropriate shoes and walk on snow. They sell these really neat shoes that work for that.

They can’t. There is a contract! 🤣🤣🤣

Then use the contract hours. Teacher should come in and do the planning/training that leads to the early release days in elementary school. Those days can then be canceled. Teachers who do not have planning or training to do can help remove snow. Then they will be fulfilling their contract and certainly earning their money.

how about you being a parent who can't take care or control your children go ti the schools and surrounding neighborhoods and plow/remove snow.
you had the kids, its your parental right to help the community.

Reid snuck them in again this year without notice or justification. The previous year they were announced very late with the stated justification being new state mandates training. There was no reason given for this year.

The reason is that FCPS is not meeting the required planning time for ES teachers.

Well, my employer (you?) doesn’t provide me with adequate grading and planning time. Actually, we should speak about OSHA requirements, as well. Let’s talk bathrooms, bathroom breaks, lunch breaks. I’ll come with a list. Don’t worry.

If parents want school to open so bad, then start shoveling.

You think the kindergarten teachers are the one making this decision. What an utterly moronic comment. You must be an education-hating MAGA.

It’s not required. Which is why LCPS doesn’t have them.
