They’re not in spring break?

Teachers want more money but don’t want to work the slack schedule they already have.

yep... having school buses on the road during a time of potential severe weather would really be smart

It's Holy Thursday. This decision should be an easy one

yeah, who cares if hundreds of kids are on school busses during tornados

educators and the bureaucrats who surround them are some of the laziest frickers I've ever seen.

I'll never understand the issue some of you seem to have with erring on the side of caution.
It's almost as if the only way you think they're justified is if a severe storm comes through during a 30 minute window.

I remember sitting in the hall at school during a tornado. What happened to those days?
Posted on 4/17/19 at 1:07 pm to LSUsmartass
School was probably going to have 20% attendance tomorrow anyway since Friday begins spring break so might as well shut the whole thing down.
Posted on 4/17/19 at 1:11 pm to LSUsmartass
it is understandable, especially since kids will be going home (i.e. on buses) around the time the strong stuff should hit.
sucks for parents that scramble to find a sitter, always good to be cautious, imo

I understand it. I just think we go too far with it. We live on a planet where things happen. But the chances are infinitesimally small they will.
I tell you what, if a tornado actually hits a Livingston Parish school (or knocks over a single van, truck or bus in LP) Thursday, I will send you $40, on the condition that if nothing happens, you send me $20. That's pretty good odds for you... I should reverse that, in my favor.
Also, if you REALLY want to save some kids lives, lower all speed limits to 15mph, nationwide, including freeways.
Too slow for you? Not worth it? THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!

Zachary Schools are closed tomorrow.
