There have been years when they had to go to school on Martin Luther King's birthday, President's Day, no days off for Easter or spring break, etc. It has to be really bad for school to close here!Davidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02783463040190444996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-71543850207817620722015-01-30T12:05:12.178-05:002015-01-30T12:05:12.178-05:00In my area, they only cancel the buses during snow...In my area, they only cancel the buses during snow days. Technically the school is still open so they don't bother adjusting the schedule.

They add 30 minutes to the school day. If I remember right it adds 10 snow days to the calendar. However, I live in the deep south. If we had a snow like you had there would be no school for at least a week.//kdlibertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08293165615405616709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-87265369515963227492015-01-30T09:41:12.546-05:002015-01-30T09:41:12.546-05:00Margaret - I can tolerate one storm and then I'...Margaret - I can tolerate one storm and then I'm done. haha<br /><br />Christina - I don't know if other schools in the area are the same but ours gives us the last day w/out any snow days. When my dad was teaching, there were snow days built in but that was in a different town.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09856102708963900512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-57677669528663489762015-01-30T07:58:28.655-05:002015-01-30T07:58:28.655-05:00I see that you mentioned that the snow days will a...I see that you mentioned that the snow days will add days to the end of the school year for the girls. Do they not build days into the school calendar up there? I'm in Baltimore and they usually built a few days, 3-5, into the calendar and if they don't use them they get out a few days earlier.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930686456946897625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-43395964459154955472015-01-30T01:04:38.006-05:002015-01-30T01:04:38.006-05:00When I see your pictures of snow, all I can think ...When I see your pictures of snow, all I can think is "How beautiful!
