[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Code Yellow” description on MCPS website has now been updated.

https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/emergency/closings/#codeyellow

New language includes:
— All-day childcare programs will operate on a two-hour delay.
[b]— Morning and After-school childcare programs may operate as scheduled, families are encouraged to contact their childcare provider[/b]

As of yesterday 12/3 it still said
[b]— Morning childcare is canceled.[/b]
— All-day childcare programs will operate on a two hour delay.

Hope they stick to this revision going forward![/quote]

Under Code Yellow I am currently seeing this language: "[b]Morning, all-day and After-school childcare programs may operate as scheduled, families are encouraged to contact their childcare provider[/b]"

The other question is if there is a big snowstorm, how long will they keep MCPS offices (and therefore, childcare) closed after other workplaces (e.g. County Government) have opened? Last year it was a couple of days of no childcare, no school, but workplaces expected folks to show up.[/quote]

Before last year, extended-day providers generally were able to be open for snow days, unless it was really bad -- like the first day of a snowstorm when the school needed to plow the lot and shovel sidewalks. But last year, things changed. I would not hold my breath that the Taylor administration has changed its mind and will allow providers to operate.[/quote]

Are workplaces paying when childcare workers are injured driving to work in bad conditions?

Maybe workplaces should operate their own emergency childcare centers.[/quote]
