[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is because it throws off the school calendar if most kids have off and the virtual kids don't. Do they then get out a day earlier at the end of the year? Easier to just have everyone on the same page.

Also, let the kids play outside and enjoy the snow--a decent snow day like this happens so rarely![/quote]

OP here. My high schooler just got up. That's why he's happy :-) But he needs every day of school he can get for his AP exams in May. I'll be lucky if I can get him outside to walk the dog!

A high schooler taking AP classes should be able to study on his own for one day. There are a ton of resources online. No wonder MCPS teachers seem so unhappy. Nutty parents are a dime a dozen around here  [/quote]

OP here. Woah, lots of grumpy parents around here! The kids do their part, I said I was amused. Relax. We went for a walk with said teenager and younger kids, and they were all pretty happy. Yes, they do study on their own. Got all 5s on AP exams last year.

I posted because it's really too weird to have "Virtual" in the name of the school, and yet close for snow!  :lol: [/quote]
