So yeah, posting this because I got my first snow day of the year. I live in Indiana you see, and so our Vigo County law says " half a foot of snow, school closed ". The strangest thing is, we never did get the snow before the announcement was rectified. The board based the school close on a forecast that said we "may" get half a foot of snow by this afternoon.
Now I'm not the kind of guy that's bummed out about not going to school today, but...that seems kind of.. i don't know the correct word, wrong. So...what if we really DON'T get half a foot of snow? Either way, a snow day is spent, so it's added on to the end of the year that we gotta make up. I'm kinda iffy on closing school based off a forecast that isn't too accurate though. Heck, if we really don't get 6" of snow, the snow day could have been turned over and we wouldn't have to make it up.
Oh yeah the second thing: We all live in different states/provinces, regions, and..erm, nations, so post your requirements on snow days and other district laws that make those requirements! I hear states like California only need ice and around half an inch for a closing, since snow is so rare..
