[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a Loudoun teacher and the day was “fine” in the sense we had no storm damage but it was a bad day generally and not worth all the stress. Tons of absent kids and staff, kids being dismissed all day by parent pickup, we spent 45 minutes in the hall for a tornado warning which disrupted all the kids taking the writing SOL and led to testing discrepancies. Some kids were freaking out about a tornado, nobody could focus afterward. [b]It was a really bad really stressful day that instructionally was worthless[/b]. And that was after navigating major multiple plans for my kids about how they’d get home in the event of a regular dismissal or emergency early dismissal. I’m wiped getting home from that day. I can’t see how it was better than just having an early release and being able to plan for that and not start testing that got interrupted . [/quote]

LCPS parents in my workplace were thrilled with the call. Hopefully they are in touch with leadership to express their appreciation.[/quote]

Ok? [/quote]

My point is LCPS obviously takes into account more stakeholders than just upset teachers who wanted to be in their yoga pants. And so far as any students were “freaking out” it was probably because their teachers were telling them it was too dangerous to be in school.[/quote]
