Climate change is increasing extreme weather events, not decreasing them

We were at dinner with friends who have kids at DCPS, and when we got the school cancelled notification, the DCPS kid said “the difference between an MCPS kid and a DCPS kid is that for the DCPS kid, a few snowflakes isn’t enough to make us stay home.”
And then she said her perception of school closures:
If McPS is closed->. DCPS will have a 2 hour delay.
If MCPS has a 2 hour delay-> DCPS is fully open

Before the 6 day closure we had gotten into a good homework routine with our 6yo. Then when school was out, no homework was sent and we got out of our routine. Obviously this is hardly the end of the world but it does have a real impact on kids.
Your 6 year old has homework in MCPS? Where do you go to school? Homework is prohibited except for 5th graders.
Homework GRADING is prohibited perhaps. My elem kids have daily math homework and occasional spelling review.

Parenting failure. It's never been easier to find free homework for your kids. AI can generate an infinite customized supply.

...it's just something that occasionally happens."
That's what my elementary schooler said to me. Not saying that a day off might not be needed given this storm, but the accumulated lack of structure and planning has its effects.
