i'm probably getting a school closure tomorrow since i'm supposed to be getting at least 8" of snow from the storm. now i have a little story to tell about a mistake my county made one day.
around a month ago, my county made the stupid decision to open up schools at normal time one day when there was some stuffty weather goin on. keep in mind that pretty much every county surrounding mine closed for the day due to said weather. there were dozens upon dozens of accident reports (142 to be exact), and a lot of kids showing up really late from the weather. i think a few kids even got injured in a car accident goin to school. as you could imagine, a lot of people were pissed. i still think it's bullstuff that we didn't even get dismissed early or anythin, seeing that the county probably knew they forgeted up by the time the accident reports started rolling in that morning. i remember everyone getting really excited during second period to hear the announcements come on, just to hear completely unrelated news, thus crushing everyone's hopes of leaving early. ahhh, the joys of living in maryland.
