Snow Days of Yore
Today's picture comes from last month's snow storm, which cancelled school for a week. I'll admit that the snow levels were pretty high, but does it look like lots of students would have trouble getting to school here? I don't think so. I made my usual walk to school in 25 minutes, about standard. And there were plenty of people walking along the road to work at 8:00 in the morning.
But, a week of school was a week of relaxing, which was nice. I've just yesterday realized that, after about a month of teaching 2 or 3 days a week, tops (Thanks to holidays, snow days, and a week off because of a cold spell), I'll be working a full schedule until the end of the month. No holidays until spring break.
That doesn't mean that the students are taking it like that though. Today, at the end of International Women's Day, I had to parry off about 1,345,897 requests to cancel class and let the girls go home early. I did not, of course, give. Kids these days...
