Quote: Yep, no reason for schools to be closed today. Little bit of overkill.
Liability, liability, liability. Wreck one school bus and the legal settlements will cost the district what it costs to keep the school open for 6 months. I'd have driven my kids to school myself today, but there's no way I would have put them on a school bus. Heck, I'm not even 100% comfortable with them riding the bus on a CAVU day.

I can see why the cancel school. In Cobb, if they determine 15% of the students at any school in the county can't come in for weather reasons the whole county gets the day off. It's not like a work type "come in if you can come in" situation where they lay the burden on the individual.

Hey, speaking of work type situations, any truth to the rumor that our Atlanta headquartered subcontracted lift provider has been handing out trip failures to people who can't make the drive in this week?? Wouldn't surprise me in the least.
