The best think parents could do last week and this weekend was to buy their kids snowboots to handle the snowbanks.

Is this Central Office ?

That was kind of you to offer parents snow boots for them and their kids

Bus depot?

Bus drivers navigating on these conditions?

13k bus stops?

Sidewalks leading to those bus stops? (County was going to resume enforcement of unshoveled sidewalks Monday)

They've been working on bus depots since last week. The pictures looked pretty good at the Clarksburg depot, and those were taken 5 days ago.

Bus stops and sidewalks don't need to be fully clear. Kids can walk on snow. But the county did a lot of work on sidewalks over the weekend.

County and WMATA buses have been running.

Who cleans the outside of the buses? And snow/ice around the parked buses at the depot? The bus drivers??

Those buses are huge. Try cleaning them

Offices include all 12 month school staff (principal, AP, secretaries) so if all 200+ admin teams can't get into their buildings, offices are closed. Also the actual central office lots get plowed last because they focus on schools first.

BS

MCPS is now in commercial office space and pay astronomical rent. Their parking lot is cleared by their landlord.

+1 ridiculous that anyone is claiming if one 12 month worker can't get to the office everyone gets the day off. Most of us non MCPS workers are using our leave today if we need to stay home with our kids

Who handles clearing up the buses and bus depot? Seems duh enough but people don't seem to realize if those buses can't get out of the depot, um, schools close
