I hope this is posted to be funny because it made me chuckle. But just in case it isn't because I know how stupid some DCUMs could be, if you haven't noticed, the media reports the school closings, delays, and early dismissals, so I'm pretty sure they are aware of these things.[/quote]
Clearly you are the stupid one. The media can bring light to the overall effect this is having on families and students.  In addition, the media certainly doesn't report all the other routine closures FCPS has nor does it report on how they close for every single religious holiday known to man!

If you're ok, you're not paying attention![/quote]

They don't report on those things because it's not news.  Schools set their calendars and move along.  The news has much bigger issues to report.[/quote]

I think you’re wrong, the decline of Fairfax is system is news because it used to be among the best in the country.

It is in no one‘s interests for our school to be laughingstock. Most people’s largest asset is their home, and people buy in Fairfax because of the schools. I heard a pretty damning comment at a (private) pre-K orientation event: when asked how the local elementary was a mother shrugged and said it’s fine when it’s open.[/quote]

No one accepts your premise that the schools are "declining." [/quote]
