It would be sooo nice if we could start school after Labor day...I know we would have to go longer in June...but it would be so much easier...now my lesson plans are TOTALLY SCREWED!!

Holy cow. I guess it's not getting any better then - I just got an e-mail from work that says we can work from home!

Wow...it's just a little rain and wind!  LOL  Although I guess I can understand because for the possible flooding in some areas.

Yeah, Seminole schools were open the only bad day...today. Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday...closed. Sucks, I really need to get some work done, but DD is home again!!

The ONLY thing that bothered me about OCS cancelling school for today was that they waited until 10 p.m. to call and let parents know.  Maddy's daycare IS the school, so finding all day care for her is harder during the school year.

I agree with you!  My DH is a teacher at OCS and we were already in bed when they called him to say it was cancelled at almost 10.  I thought that was annoying.

I am late on this, but Orange County made the announcement around 9:20 and we always follow what Orange County does on the 1st day. (I am at a private school and this week has been totally odd!)

Well, lots of teachers and parents call me and we don't know if we are suppossed to go to school or not. They never changed the website or voicemail -- it still had an old message from days ago. NUTS!

It ended up that we had school -- even though every other school around us was closed. (They offered excused abscences, but most people came to school despite the crazy wind and rain)

It ended up being fine -- it was just some of the commuication was very off.

Like most teachers, my lesson plans are off -- but a few days won't kill me! I am looking forward to a full week of school. (I can't believe I said that -- hee hee!!)

I'm glad that OCPS only closed for 2 days...looks like Maddy will have to go to school for the 2 days off in October, but that's better than the week of her Thanksgiving break.

I am so looking forward to an actual week of school! A full week! I don't think we have to make up any days since we try to build a few days into the system . . . thank goodness!

I will actually get to see all of my students -- I dind't get to se over half of them last week due to school closings.
