No CAP we don't, we have 13 days built in to be used for bad weather.  They don't have to be used and can't be used for anything but bad weather, but we don't have to go to school late until we miss 13.

*Insert quip about Tennessee's education system here*   

Really though, that's got to be really difficult for teachers.  Tough to chop 13 days out of a curriculum and not lose some vital elements.

ya, i can imagine.....you've got your lessons planned, and whammo!! they give ya days off.......

i seriously forget how much snow it took for them to close the schools around here back when i was in highschool(the 70's) but i'm pretty sure it was more than an inch.....which is what it seems is all itg takes for them to close em now.

After the expected snowfall was raised incrementally from 10-12, then 16-20, and now 18-24 inches, this pretty much sums up the mentality in DC.

My office has decided to let people work from home tomorrow if they cannot "safely" make it in.

I respect that, but enjoy my snow far, far too much to ever live in such a place.  I'm REALLY happy that we are having a record snow year here in DC, and not just for purposes of snow days from work.     Call it masochism, I call it growing up in western NY.  

To each his own.

im with durski,   it is the one thing a do miss about michigan, having snow around for 5 months of the year.     Naw i dont want it that much but the kids love to play in it and it gets them outside!   not to mention i went sleding with the kids this last weekend....talk about reliving your youth!      lol i think i had more fun than they did......they though i was crazy.....well i am but more so than usual!   
tonight were getting a sleet ice storm, the one time a year where one of those old metal runner sleds would be fun.    oh well at least at this piont i still got power!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! Although you might want to enjoy it before the glacier forms
up and you can't risk even going outside!

Well trying to find local news for an update here in Maryland. I guess DR. Phil is more important than the weather.
