And this is early in the day for them to do it so it wasn’t a close call. With deep freeze coming and no school Friday we should just assume no school this week.

I’ve tried and there’s no breaking through the ice.


Thats why you were supposed to do it multiple times yesterday. Lazy people.

School will not open tomorrow. My street is showing on the Arlington map as one you would think is better than most but in reality it’s covered in snow and ice. My kids are sledding on it.

Our street hasn't been plowed yet, so I'm assuming we'll be closed tomorrow.

There is no way school is happening tomorrow. The 36 hour ordinance means sidewalks don’t even have to be shoveled until tomorrow morning and if they’re not done by tonight then they’re going to freeze solid from 10° temps.

PG County closed until Friday at the earliest. With APS already closed Friday best to assume no school this week.

Agree, though I think all week is a safe bet


Should be Thursday but probably won’t be. I’d guess all week.

Temps not above freezing over the next weekend or early next week either but at some point it apparently gets embarrassing and they just send them back to school anyway.


It just takes time to clear hard packed cement like ice and snow. It has nothing to do with being embarrassed. Go look at the crosswalks by your house over the next few days. No one clears those and you can't have 12 year olds bounding a pile of snow and ice to cross a street. You can't have kids walking in the street instead of the sidewalks.

So get outside and help clear things. Do extra shoveling. Find a cross walk and help shovel that clear.

I think getting the buses started in the extreme cold (before 7am) will be a factor.

So I assume APS resumes classes in the Spring?

How many snow days are built into schedule? Can we do any virtual synchronous school to avoid extending school year into summer? All the kids brought home their devices I think?


13 snow days built in. If they used them all (they won’t), they switch to virtual school).
