[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's this type of thing - Closing schools for over a week but letting sports and other activities continue - that is either a symptom or a cause of America's downfall. I've lived all over the world and I have never seen schools close for more than 1 day for snow or any other reason. It's clear that we do not value education anymore.[/quote] This is exactly the perspective that folks in this area need to hear. You are not valuing "safety" over other considerations and cannot hide behind "safety first" on every topic. You are objectively exercising poor judgement and decision making skills. Rest of the world/other school districts are not "reckless". They just do not need their life/world to be 100% easy or risk mitigated to make it work. Look inward and find some courage - at least for your kid's sake. [/quote]
