[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The problem arises that you can't throw money at it- there are no camps or childcare open for a delay.[/quote] You are wrong. Here is the MCPS language: MCPS is Code Yellow: Delayed Opening for Monday, December 15, 2025, with schools and offices opening two hours late. [b]Morning, all-day, and after-school childcare programs may operate as scheduled[/b]; families are encouraged to check directly with their childcare provider. Childcare usually opens at 7:30am. Drop your kid and go to work. Or call out. I really don't care but I don't want to hear whining about "cruelty".[/quote] That's great if you’re in MCPS. FCPS isn't quite as flexible. [/quote] I thought FCPS is open on time?[/quote] They are. I guess PP is talking hypothetically. But usually FCPS before care opens on time when school has a 2 hour delay (at least they used to). [/quote] FCPS before care opens at 8 am on 2 hour delay days. However, not everyone has before care because not everyone needs before care if schools open on time. It's not something you can just sign up for by the day.[b] Please don't tell me you think people should be paying for before care just so they can get their kid off to school on the approximately 10 or so 2 hour delays days that occur annually[/b]. [/quote] No that’s not what I meant. I was just responding to the PP that implied FCPS SACC doesn’t open on delayed days. And I have a child that doesn’t use before care, which definitely causes issues if we have a delay, so I understand the problem. [/quote]
