Yep, my neighbor was all excited to teach from home today and now I wonder if they will still do this or just have everyone come in person.
All teachers and students must wear their PJs inside out the night before to evoke the snow fairies.
Something under the pillow also?? Maybe that’s the problem!
Spoons!

Wait, there's no longer snow days for kids? Everyone just does wfh, because the infrastructure is there from the pandemic?
Yep. Some places will just have virtual days, a lot will have “asynchronous” learning days where teachers post assignments online for kids to work on that day.
;_;
Poor little guys
There are still some real snow days - Pittsburgh Public had one in December. No online school, just a day off. I think we had one or two last year also, in addition to some online days. Not sure how exactly they decide which one to do.
So Pittsburgh public does the first 2 snow days are completely off. No online work. Once we hit the 3rd day then it would be online.
Makes sense, thanks.
Yep and its annoying af.
Once they set up remote learning, they just flip a switch and learn from home. Best result for the kiddos would be a 2 hour delay. In person learning, but the streets need to be cleared and teachers be able to arrive.
My poor husband spent all of last night refreshing the local news sites. We joked about how he didn’t even care this much about snow days when he was actually a kid.

Right??? I'm a nanny. The kids were sent home yesterday with all their textbooks in preparation for a zoom day. I was looking forward to a lazy morning not rushing kids out the door. It picked up just in time for me not be able to pull the minivan up the driveway after dropping off the elementary kid.

Ah! This is why my daughter insisted that I check my email for anything about a school delay this morning. They must have said at her school yesterday that that was likely. I had been wondering why she thought there might be a delay.
