[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have lived in this area for 15 years and am still surprised how often they close for snow. Especially given how many kids depend on school for things like food and being warm. I know we do not prioritize education at all (see, eg, pandemic), but it still surprises me. People are too eager to throw in the towel even for important things like school. [/quote]

What? We've closed once this year? Once last year? This is such an overdramatic response. [/quote]
For snow.  How about all the other closures? Last year, there were almost more weeks with 4 days of school than no. It's simply unacceptable to always do the bare minimum. We ought to strive for greatness. Not mediocrity. [/quote]

Last year there were 180 days of school. How many more would you want?[/quote]

Given how unprepared students are, a lot more. [/quote]

Take a look at your own child. Are they learning? If not..it’s on you. Also what does unprepared even mean?[/quote]

WHAT? That makes no sense whatsoever.  Parents are not the educators. We can support education but if a kid is not learning, that's 100% on the school.[/quote]

100%... WOW....this is an amazing post. I wish I knew this as a parent man I could have just put my feet up told my kids sorry you are struggling not my fault talk to the educators. :lol:  :lol:  :lol: [/quote]
