What is with the school. Once again the road conditions are as bad as ever and Evansville is holding school. I can't believe that this happened again.
Winds are blowing so hard that "white outs" are making it so you can't see 100 feet in front of you. Snow is drifting across the roads causing so many accidents that the Sheriff's Department can't keep up. Tow trucks are hours away from getting to some accidents. People are being injured in these accidents all over Rock County. Is Evansville Schools open, you bet. But it gets better.
After all your kids are at school and the road conditions are getting worse we send the kids back home again 5 hours later. Semi trucks are jack knifing on Hwy 14 and Hwy 26 and more and more accidents are occurring.
This has to stop. Use your head and call off school. Make the day up at a later time. No person should have to be injured just to get to school. That includes students, staff, parents and the bus drivers.

I think this part of Heidi's job description does need to be taken away from her. Unreal once again, we as parents could see at 6 am that the roads were nasty, and we all heard it was going to be that way all day, but what do we do put the kids on a bus. I was in the school office that morning, two staff members were late getting in because of the weather, and three buses had called in complaining about the roads, thankfully none of the buses went off the road, but they reported seeing numerous cars in the ditch. This was all in the 10 minutes I was in the office. Heidi was totally irresponsible on this.
The comment deleted was that of watchiin hit the buttom by mistake. thanks for visiting my site.
But then some people get po'd because they have to take off work to watch their kids or scramble to find day care.
The real joke is that there's like two days off school every month that they could use for snow days instead of going at the end of the year.
I had to take off work and I was not p.o., first of all I am not going to drive in that stuff we had on friday, second of all I want my kids at home where I know they are safe when weather is like that. If I had known just how bad it really was going to get, I would have kept them at home, as they ride the bus and some of the back roads were in passable. They had to call a plow out on the one road. Common sense has to come first, not who they may be inconviencing.
Keep up the good work.
