I expect there will be some kids at school for hours, and some will go home on buses and have nobody to meet them and get returned to school. It's a total clusterfuck. On the plus side, even though there's no way I'll be there by 12:30 I don't feel too guilty because I am sure half the kids will still be there when I get there.
Okay, I'm lying, I feel incredibly guilty and stressed out. My coworker who is driving me is teaching and won't be done until 12:15. We'll be lucky to get Casper by 1pm.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That just seems really irresponsible. What about parents who have jobs they can't leave?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
When I was in elementary school, I remember that whenever there was an early school closing for snow, the kids whose parents couldn't pick them up would go home with other kids. There was definitely some sort of system for how it worked, so that every kid would have somewhere to go and every parent would know where their kid was, but I don't remember what the system was. I just remember that, whenever there was an early dismissal for snow, my mom would pick up me and at least one or two other kids, and we'd play in the snow in the backyard or go sledding until their mothers came to pick them up.
