[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]delay tomorrow - makes sense. it was ugly this AM[/quote]

I left 10 minutes earlier than I would normally leave if driving my kids off (at two separate schools - middle school and high school start times) and it was a massive nothing burger.

Just throwing it out there that parts of the County and some schools seem a-ok.  Sorry to those struggling I know there are some tough spots.[/quote]

Im sorry, what? Did you drop off your kids or not? And MS/HS? Or you just left earlier for your commute to work?

The elementary are the worst; older kids tend to have staggered drop offs because a teen can walk a couple blocks on their own; most elementary drivers must arrive at the actual school. [/quote]

I allowed 10 minutes more than I normally would to drop them.  The scene at drop off at the giant high schools is something else even on a normal day.  Starting in 3rd I would drop mine and let mine walk on their own.  Mine walked to the bus stop alone at that age.  Yes even in some snow I would.  Littler than that, it's tough.  So hats off you had it the absolute worst.

Everything is terrible I'm so sorry I wrote in with my experience.[/quote]

This isnt snow. This is ice encasing everything, I wouldn’t let any elementary child walk alone for blocks with so many unshoveled sidewalks that are ice rinks (or walk in street hidden by snow mounds from drivers). [/quote]

Okay my older elementary kid wandered the neighborhood all week with friends and was fine.  I don’t know how some of you even function and you’re raising kids just like you.  [/quote]

Its way different to roam around with a large group of kids rather than a single kid trying to navigate drivers rushing to drop off kids at kiss and ride or to work. [/quote]
