[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think they should close schools for this but I do worry about how slippery the entranceways to every school are going to get.  Each school has like maybe 2-3 mats at the front doors and those will become soaked and covered in snow and ice after like the first 25 kids stomp their boots and shoes off.  This happened at my middle school last year and kids and staff kept falling in the hallway.  First time I watched it, I could help but laugh but eventually it stopped being funny.[/quote]

Have you talked to building services about that? There are various approaches to help. The easiest one that is often enough is setting up some blower fans. The school definitely has them.[/quote]

Last year we closed every entrance and funneled all kids through one set of doors and used all the mats in the building at that one entrance.  We also used blower fans and put down cardboard as makeshift mats.  Still turned into a slip and slide 10 feet further into the school.  I mean it's unavoidable but it still is concerning.  Again, I don't think they should cancel school for this reason at all.[/quote]

Must be a high school? That should have been enough for the number of people coming into elementary schools.[/quote]

I said middle school in my original post[/quote]
