I'm VERY anti "Remote Learning" on snow days. Snow days are magical and young people should play video games and have snowball fights.
Or go sledding.
And pester their parents who are doing remote office work to make hot chocolate.
Hmph.
@futurebird totally. snow days are magical days

@futurebird It's so ridiculous. If I were a parent in the Year of our Lord Two Thousand and Twenty-Six, I would simply shut the laptop and tell my kid(s) to go play in the snow. "Sorry, they won't be online today, they're 'sick'. Yeah, bad cold, going around. They'll be fine tomorrow."
Everyone needs a break, and no break hits quite like a snow day when you're a li'l nine-year-old. I have so many fond snow day memories. Kids have enough going on. We should let them take a day off to be kids.
@theorangetheme @futurebird p much yeah

@futurebird You hit on exactly why I didn't like snow in the Midwest - I was expected to drive in it, work in it, and never to play in it. And now I miss it and love it...because now where I live everything shuts down and runs around like a kid sledding and such. It's wonderful.

God did not put me on this Earth to work. I was born into this world for THREE things: to count ants, make puns, and spout nonsense.
@futurebird how many are you up to?

@futurebird I live in a city full of hills with (until recently?) snow. Let kids be projectile kids!

@futurebird There's essentially no such thing as "snow days" where I'm from. It's district policy to keep the schools open as much as possible (unless the weather conditions make it literally impossible for even staff to show up to schools, which never happened during the course of my school career). Parents do have the option to not send their kids to school if they choose to, though I don't recall many parents actually doing that unless they lived very far away from the school or something.

@futurebird YEEEESSSSS!!!! NO LEARNING ON SNOW DAYS!!

@futurebird When I was little, we created an entire snowman village on a snow day - all of the snowmen had names, families, and personal histories.
@Meowthias @futurebird I love this so very much.

@futurebird I am an educator in Hong Kong and we have online learning on typhoon days.
Not ideal.

@futurebird What a remarkably obsolete concept. If they do not get a remote learning alternative they will be trying to extend the school year. And Parents will complain.

@SistaWendy @futurebird it works either way, but are the kids being launched or are they launching snowballs?

@futurebird 1000% if i have kids i would not force them to log in. they should play outside!
-
If they don't have a "remote learning day" then they need to tack an extra day on at the end of the year to make up for time.
I think that admins and posh parents who want to buy plane tickets early are behind all of this.
@futurebird where I grew up in Michigan they always budgeted snow days into the annual school schedule. If we ended up not using them, summer started a few days early
