Still deciding? Fine. Gonna open on time? Great. Communicate.
It’s sucks that they can’t be bothered to put out a quick Open On Time.
Nothing is gonna change with the weather forecast overnight.


Yes this is totally incompetent and all Michelle Reid. After meeting her a few times she is incredibly controlling even when she does not have a full understanding of the subject matter.

The FCPS marketing guy, you earned your bonus. You may stop now.



There has been a two-hour delay. We've noticed a spike in students skipping school, often because parents are not at home.

Who are "we"?
This is not accurate. Where is the data supporting this?

Lol news alert kids skip school all the time as the very high chronic absenteeism in the county. Many of these skips are parent assisted

Do you want the bonus as well?

Ok, the marketing guy who put that "2-hour" last time by mistake, you've earned your FCPS salary.

And check the bus app to see if it gets to the school. If it doesn’t, FCPS doesn’t seem to care anyway. They will send "thoughts and prayers."

No one is arguing about the five days. The concern is that children are being put on buses at 6:30 a.m. when road conditions are icy.
Are we seriously waiting for an accident to happen?

The DOT here doesn’t have the supplies or volume of equipment to properly treat secondary roads for ice when temps are below 20 degrees.
