Hell, come to Rapides Parish, we have schools that cant have kids in em because if you have any significant rain...you cant flush the shitters. Our superintendent just keeps talking about better together as our schools crumble down. Better get em out of there in storms, they may just fall in on themselves.

Some of you fricking idiots have no clue how liability works In a state that’s as sue-happy as Louisiana is, I don’t blame them one bit.
Show me a single case of a school getting sued and losing for having school…..

This always gets said with nothing to back it up. A school is more likely to lose a suit where the cancel school and the child gets hurt at home due to the school sending the child home

That sums it up.

They are also scared of having buses full of kids on the road when a storm rolls through.

Funny thing, I remember the John Curtis lower school would flood in the classrooms during heavy rains. I’m talking water to your ankles. I believe we just moved to a higher classroom when that happened.

Younger me would have loved all of this. You people have become what you hated. Pathetic.

Nothing better than a Catholic education.


I fervently believed this until my son graduated out of a Catholic elementary school after 7th grade and we moved him to an independent private school. The Archdiocese does exactly what the State says, and I realized it during the tail end of Covid.

I went to high school in Central MS from 1986-89, and I never remember getting out for severe weather. I remember getting out when it snowed, but not tornadic weather

Yeah, why not put thousands of people on the road with incoming weather? Makes no sense.
