[quote=Anonymous]It turned out it was smart they announced the early closure as early as they did. Our school changed the school day schedule to compress core classes and skip homeroom and recess. They also shortened lunch and except for a couple grades who always take lunch early, everyone else did lunch in classrooms just before pickup to minimize transition time and maximize class time. So there really wasn't much actual class time lost. Yes the storm was mostly a bust, but they did see wind gusts of near 70 mph at National, and there was some rotation in cloud formations near DC. It's not like they just made it up. Weather is unpredictable and 2 hours is really not that big of a deal to miss. It was inconvenient but I don't think kids really suffered. My kid came home and read books during the time she would have been in school, so really nothing lost.[/quote]
