[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People, it is not the snow that is the issue - it was the icy road conditions at the time when the buses and students who drive would have been out on the road. The delay would have been ideal but I would rather the district be safe now than sorry later. I know some of you are put out. MCPS always catches hell for not protecting students in other contexts, but it gets as much hell when it does something to protect them.[/quote] Whatever. It's not icy here in Silver Spring. Other posters say it's not icy in the BCC area. That's a lot of students who could be learning today, but aren't. And a lot of their parents are going to go to work anyway because OPM and others don't call this a snow day, so you have a lot of kids home alone (this is not super-safe). [/quote] That's fine. I saw cars and a SUV slide down the hill outside my house. I am in Silver Spring too. I do not normally defend MCPS but in cases like this, it is damned if you do and damned if you don't. Whatever decision they make, someone is going to be pissed. [/quote]
