[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of after school activities tonight. My bet is they don't shut it down.  Things are fine.  The drama around here is astonishing.[/quote]

It's insane.  The roads were really fine for the duration of this event.  They were fine while it was flurrying.  Schools should not close because someone somewhere can't make it up their hill at the exact time they need to leave their house.  The fact that people think a massive school district should close down for these outlier situations is so self-absorbed and weird to me. [/quote]

It's also self-absorbed to think that everyone in this massive county should be out on the roads because your little area looks o.k.  Although things improved after noon, many roads were not in good shape for most of the morning.  There was a ground stop at DCA, the Fairfax County PD asked people to stay off the roads if possible, a section of Richmond Highway was closed due to spin outs, etc.  These are all indications that there were some significant issues.  Check out the Jobs and Careers thread where people who actually drove to work today, rather than WFH, also experienced a lot of problems on the roads.[/quote]

[b]Is your premise that thousands of kids should miss school if there are any disruptions whatsoever due to weather?[/b] It’s going to snow here sometimes. It’s going to ice, sometimes. It doesn’t mean schools need to close for EVERYTHING. It means everyone should own a shovel, and have a backup plan for delays. [/quote]

Not sure how that’s your takeaway. Weather-related issues were pretty widespread throughout the area this morning…much more than, “any disruptions whatsoever.” The PD actually asked us all to stay off the roads if possible. But go ahead and gaslight away…[/quote]
Are your children too dumb for school or something? I can't think of any other reason why mommas would want to keep their children out of school. If you are concerned about the busses being on the roads, KEEP YOUR WHINY BABIES HOME. We don't want them there. It's too disruptive for our children who are succeeding in school.[/quote]
