With the extremely cold temperatures and even colder wind chills, all area schools, including Des Moines Public have decided to cancel school for tomorrow. Technically, this can't be called a snow day since it isn't the snow that is causing school to be cancelled, so I guess that it needs to be called a "cold weather day." While this means that we will have one more day to make up at the end of the school year, I am looking forward to staying home tomorrow with my children. This has seemed like a long week, and it is only Wednesday; so a day off is a nice reprieve from my busy schedule. It also means that I won't have to be out and about in the too cold for man or beast weather tomorrow, traveling between school buildings.
It is also nice that the school districts gave notice this evening that classes were cancelled for tomorrow. This means that my children don't have to set their alarms and will hopefully sleep in in the morning.
They actually cancelled school in the school district that we live in. I think it is the first time this year they have done that. Fortunately, Emma's daycare apparently does not close due to cold weather.
ReplyDeleteBTW- Emma is feeling better. She only has a cold. She went back to daycare on Tuesday. Right now she is being a fish in the bathtub. --Piratemel
