[b]So, you’re blaming MCPS for your daycare’s lack of leadership in making their own inclement weather policy.[/quote][/b]

Not the point of this thread but this is a dumb take. Many daycares align their weather policies with the local school system as parents often have other children in schools. 🙄[/quote]

NP. I understand why daycares do this, but it's a ridiculous policy. A local daycare that does not provide transportation does not have the same safety concerns as a large countywide public school system responsible for busing thousands of children. It's terrible for families. I was so happy to finish that phase of my family's life. Schools delay at the drop of a hat because it costs them nothing, but there are consequences for most working parents with kids in daycare.

Find a daycare that doesn’t follow the school weather policy. Easy and simple. You sign up for something and then complain about following the policies. You knew exactly what you were signing onto. [b]And plenty of day cares don’t follow the school Weather policy.[/b][/quote]

Is the bolded true? My kids are older now, but when they were in daycare, I could not find any daycares nearby where they didn't follow public school delays and closings. Maybe things are better now. [/quote]

My kids have been out of daycare for five years but ours followed the federal government weather delays rather than MCPS. [/quote]

It’s true. Many follow OPM. Fewer follow their own policies but they are out there. [/quote]

My kid's preschool does not align itself with montgomery county, although they have certainly been times when they're closing and opening decisions overlapped.
