Do schools normally operate during a tropical storm/small hurricane?

[play-ball!!]

shoot  png started at 745  normal time  and it was the worse i seen the rain in a lonnnggg time  they had cars in the ditch in front of the school and about a foot of water in the parking lots

[KJB324]

Guess we better strap lifevests to the kids before sending them to school.

[dave08]

[KFDM COOP]

[skipper]

ALL SCHOOLS HAVE WHAT THAY CALL WEATHER DAYS (PLEASE KEEP OUR KIDS SAFE  USE ONE) dang use your heads

[dave08]

did you drive today because it is not even here yet and there was at least a ft or more of water flooding my street. football is on friday it will be gone by then but they need to call off school or there is gonna be a lot of kids in wrecks. it's not safe to be out.

[venom33]

Right, it is just a tropical storm... but here in Orange and in BC there A LOT of areas that flood BAD and QUICK.  With that much rain coming, it will definately cause travel problems.  Wouldn't hurt to cancel to just be safe and protect the kids.

[KJB324]

Not to mention it hasnt exactly been a dry summer.  And nobody is freaking out.

[dave08]

were i am in nederland we are 10 ft undersea level and flood if people spit to much not to mention this and it could be a cat 1 by the time it hits land it is already 50 mph.

[outanup]

Hey Dave, are you sure its not 10ft above sea level? What area of Ned do you live in?

[wos08]

Kids that go to WOS will be speedin down the street because of dumb hallsweeps

[dave08]

right off of 365 and it is 10 under when the hurricane hit 2 years ago we flooded bad.

[Mike George]

At least for Dayton, it has nothing to do with wind blowing down the school or a tornado (which this one has been forcasted to have multiple of those dancing around) ripping off the roof. It's because of transportation issues.

Picture the buses out and about in flooded areas, getting stuck or washed off the road. It's not about "getting out of class" or a teachers' day off. It's about throwing caution to the wind and staying in rather than risking even one serious accident. It's an intelligent move.

The alternative, therefore would be . . . oh well, you get the picture.

just asking are is it to early

What is it with the language on forum posts?  In Skipper's subject he uses "two" when the proper use is "to."  He knows that - so he uses one extra space and keystroke for what?  Now, in the body statement Skipper breaks even on efficiency.  Using "are" instead of the correct "or" costs a stroke but then Skipper makes that up by using the incorrect "to", which should be "too."  I don't know where Skipper went to school, or if he went to school, but to me, it seems just as easy to do the grammar correctly as it is to purposely use the wrong words.

supposedly...BISD buses will run at 4 am.....if they can make it to the schools, classes will be held  if they cant, every household w/ kid there will get an early am phone call
