[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here -- Yes, FCPS makes decisions on weather events, imperfective as it maybe.  Here's the rub though:  last year before spring break my DCs' elementary classes had 5 or 6 kids in attendance.  (That's anecdotal, I realize, but I don't have perspective of the wider drop.)  If more parents think it is a waste to go for one day, then the numbers could drop further.  Maybe work pressures will keep the attendance up, but we could see a school day that won't count even if school is officially open, right?[/quote]

Wow, if that's the case, what a great opportunity for those 5 or 6 kids to get a lot of individualized attention tomorrow!  I would definitely want my kids there.[/quote]

As i said originally, i plan to sens my kids, but if there aren't enough kids attending FCPS tomorrow (I don't know the threshold), then it won't count.  If we're near that threshold based on planned absences already or historical absences, then FCPS may decide to close.  Dunno.  For all we know, this could have played a role in the decision for today.[/quote]
