Before I moved to the east coast I had no idea about the concept of school letting out or closing because of snow and ice. However, after witnessing for myself the significant trouble that inclement weather can cause in a highly populated urban setting I see the wisdom of snow day cancellations.
During the time students are home it is important that structure is provided for children to continue to work on the core building blocks of learning the three "R's" - reading writing and arithmetic.
Parents - If possible provide quality time with your children reviewing what they've learned and then spend some play time afterward. Moments like these with your children are gone before you know it so take advantage of these opportunities.
Educating with Christ,
