| The county website says public schools are closed, but I haven't heard anything from DD's school. It's the last day, so I don't really care, but it would be good to hear some communication! |

| APS did not get this message, there is school tomorrow. |

Since it falls on a Saturday, Friday has been deemed a Federal Holiday. Many agencies will have the day off tomorrow.
Still haven't heard from my school either. |

| They are not going to close schools on the last day on only hours’ notice. That is clearly a miscommunication in the county website. |

APS just tweeted. School is definitely taking place tomorrow.
One more day! |

| Can I send my dcps kid to Arlington for a day? So livid they cancelled my children's last day and now they're crying themselves to sleep since they can't even say goodbye to teachers and friends. |

Are you kidding? That's horrible! Why would they do that to the kids? |

Because after this crap show of a year it would be really messed up to not give the elementary and middle school kids the closure of a last day. Feel free to keep yours home if you want. |

Thanks, hon. We’re in Loudoun, so we’ve been done since last Tuesday. |

I’m so sorry. This implementation is such an absurd mess. After such a horrible year, to pull the rug out from a bunch of school kids like that is just ridiculous. |
