[quote=Anonymous]I'm appreciative that they were slow to reopen for the reasons described in this thread.  But more time out of school just isn't tenable.  It's going to be below zero all week.  The problems present now will also be there a week from now.

I think they should institute some flexibility.  For instance, starting 2 hours late but allowing drop off from normal start time until the delayed start time to reduce traffic.  Maybe even putting busses on a different schedule spanning that full window (though this may be difficult given that they haven't telegraphed it ahead of time).

I wonder if they could enlist MOCO law enforcement to do traffic control for the morning and afternoon hours?

Ideally, MCPS will use this opportunity to come up with an emergency plan for severe weather in the coming year-- for instance, building it into some employees' contracts that on certain emergency days they are assigned crossing guard duty or bus stop duty to keep kids safe in the morning before school.
