[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agreed.  It seems like the casualness of it all ...similar to increase in frequency of religious holidays/teacher's planning days that don't consider the difficulties of parents.  In a pinch, Middle School kids can be by themselves but for elementary school kids, these days off are stressful and extremely inconvenient. A rare day here or there is understandable, but a whole week is nuts. 
In addition, many parents come from regions in which snow and ice are commonplace and have a hard time understanding why this is so novel.  [/quote]

Talk to the Department of Transportation, I guess.  I don’t think it snows enough here to really merit the kind of equipment you have wherever you’re from.  Welcome to DC!  [/quote]

Yes, talk to the federal Department of Transportation about snow removal in Arlington.  That will get to the bottom of this.

This is why kids need to be in school.

Excuse me.  The Virginia Department of Transportation, then.  You do understand that there are state level departments of transportation, right?[/quote]

VDOT doesn't handle majority of roads in Arlington.  That is why Arlington's roads are cleared better than Fairfax.
