[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Next week will he fine. The high Monday is 35, it’ll start to slowly melt. [/quote]

My kid can’t make it to the bus stop without everyone shoveling the sidewalk and getting cars off of the sidewalk.  I will have to drive him and be late.  Right now the only option is walking in the street… This means I will be late to greet the elementary school kids I teach.  I”m not sure it will “be fine” by Monday.[/quote]
So your lack of childcare should prevent the entire county from going back to school Monday?  The rest of us make arrangements to balance family and work demands.  You can manage.[/quote]

Heh?  When did getting to the bus stop equate to childcare?  The “kid” doesn’t need childcare, he needs to get to the bus stop.  I”m not letting him walk to school in the middle of the street when it may be dark at 7:30 am and all the crazy too big trucks will be trying to get to work.  I am also not able to shovel all the icy sidewalks from here to the bus stop for all the neighbors who aren’t many of whom own the crazy big trucks but refuse to shovel the sidewalks for others.  Are you one of these people?  Sounds like it! I am referring to the post that said “everything should be back to normal” on Monday.  No, it won’t be normal.  I will simply call in a sub for first hour of the day. He will hang at the high school in the afternoon, so that is fine.  He isn’t going to be able to hang outside the building in the morning.  I don’t care if the county calls it or not. I’m going to take care of my kids and me. Just like you do. [/quote]

It’s not dark at 7:30 am. You sound like you have it all figured out, but the tone of your post definitely made it seem like you were suggesting that schools should be closed until everything can be completely normal. Everyone is going to have to adjust and work around the less than ideal conditions for a day or two, maybe longer, until we get some good melting. I hope the people teaching our children have enough problem solving skills to handle that. [/quote]

Your child will pick up on your hostility to teachers and be a disrespectful and unproductive member of the classroom if you don’t keep that venom in check.  Be a better person.

I imagine school will be open on Monday.  I just hope FCPS will ensure the schools are ready, the busses are ready, and that no one will get hurt.  [/quote]
