[quote=Anonymous]We use Extended Day for school. This covers weekdays until 6pm and all Early Release days. Snow days - stay home. Usually I will take a few neighbor kids until lunch and then my kid will go to a friend’s house after lunch for a few hours while work remotely. Kid is sick, we stay home depending on who has less urgent meetings. Random breaks, we sign up for day camps and trade play dates with neighbors. Days off school are not the challenging part. The kid activities that assume I can drive a kid across Arlington and have them fed, dressed and ready for a sports practice at 5pm are the issue. Of course you don’t find out the day/time/location of soccer/baseball/flag football until the week before practice starts. [/quote]
