[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MoCo just called it for 2.5 hours early release. at least fcps gave us some heads up. it would be a pain to find out now and scramble to get kids. [/quote]

I prefer the 2.5 hour early release.  MCPS waited to make the decision until 10:30am and gave advance notice that they would do so at that time in advance.  I had plenty of time to make alternative arrangements.  I feel bad for FCPS and LCPS working parents who are suffering through a 3rd day of unnecessary closings.

+1, from an FCPS parent. There shouldn't be there scrambling or logistical nightmare if the early closing is forewarned and decided/announced at a predetermined time. I get that it would be really tough to arrange for a sudden early closure announced mid-day with no notice. But being told the night before "we're monitoring and will announce a decision at 5:15 am" (or 10am or whatever), followed by an announcement at that time? There's no reason people need to scramble with that kind of advance notice, any more than we needed to scramble for the day off.[/quote]
