Any time the enormous school district in our area is out because of snow, cold, blinding rays of sunshine, etc., our preschool takes the day off as well.

      <![CDATA[Heck, I don't have kids, yet even I go stir crazy during those very rare times when we have more than one day off due to snow (Wisconsin here - we're tough, but mostly we have more snow removal equipment than y'all).<br>
<br>
Does the school have to make up the missed days? It may be time for the parents to descend on the school board en masse with a more realistic plan for snow events.
