With the cold and the small chance that it snows, I really don’t know why mcps hasn’t made an early dismissal call yet

What about canceling evening activities? Big parent night planned tonight at my son’s school. Don’t want to miss the info but sounds like there could be a lot of black ice in the dark.

By 10:30 am


I don’t expect it.

It’s happened fewer than ten times since I moved to MoCo in the late ‘90s. It’s incredibly disruptive to schools, which have to rush to change schedules so all kids can be fed lunch. One year that I taught 8th grade, our lunch period was at 12:30. Instead, the cafeteria staff brought sandwiches to all of the 8th grade classrooms at noon while 7th graders ate in the cafeteria.

Plus, parents complain.

Yes, because of icy spots in many areas

That’s very wishful thinking.

Very unlikely. It takes a LOT for an early release. There id no guarantee parents will show up.

Just saw on MocoShow that there’s a chance of snow tomorrow afternoon. Odds of an early dismissal?
