[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why this became a thread about providers opening?[/quote]

You mean whether MCPS allows them to open? Because it speaks to Thomas Taylor's poor judgement and that is relevant to the fact that MCPS is complete sh$t sh0w right now.[/quote]

If MCPS buildings are closed due to safety it’s bad judgement to open child care.  [/quote]

Then at least let them open when the high schools open.[/quote]

That's too late for teachers to get to work.

Let them open unless county government is closed. They can decide not to open if they feel it is unsafe.[/quote]

Open with high schools means open when the high schools would be expected to be staffed. That's 30-60 minutes before the bell.[/quote]

It shouldn't be about when schools open. School closure/delay decisions are made based on the need for buses to navigate residential streets. You shouldn't force child care shutdowns based on that standard.[/quote]

That's a misconception. Buses handle fairly well in the snow due to their weight. They're not the limiting factor. The limiting factor is probably teachers commuting from other areas. But, yes, also doesn't make sense to apply to forced child care closures.[/quote]

Bus drivers have to get there a few hours before to clean off the snow and get the busses warmed up.  And, many kids walk and don't have bus service.  For HS, its 2 miles.  Often with no sidewalks, crossing multiple busy roads, etc.  You think its ok to a HS student to walk at 6:30 AM on black ice on the middle of the road because there are no sidewalks?  Multiple kids have been killed this year due to car accidents.[/quote]

You still haven't explained why, after drivers got to the buses ready and did their routes, after students walked to bus stops and schools, after facilities workers prepared buildings and grounds and after teachers went to school, it was *still* somehow unsafe to allow child care operators the *option* to open up.

Because you're obviously just a troll. [/quote]
