Yikes. That might be a little too big for my taste. No question it's gonna be cold as hell next week.
 
We've already had three days of "remote school" (Friday, Monday, Tuesday) off of like 2.3 inches of snow in Greensboro. Lord knows how long we'd be out of school if that happened.
 
Forsyth County has just been out (not virtual) for all those days because we don’t have enough chromebooks to go around. Last full week of school was almost a month ago. My kids are tired of each other and of us 😂
 
Even if this weather system doesn't materialize we may well see school delays in central NC next week due to the very cold temps. Currently projected low temperatures of 12 on Tuesday and 16 on Wednesday. Not a lot of people in NC (outside of the mountains) are really prepared to be outside in those temps.

This is NC man. Can't have poor kids with no real winter jackets freezing to death waiting for the bus or walking to school before the sun comes up. They've had two-hour delays in the past for really cold temps, wouldn't surprise me if it happens next week if these projected temps hold.

Maybe, just maybe, if our glorious state legislature provided full funding to our public schools instead of diverting hundreds of millions (soon to be billions) to vouchers for mostly rich people to pay for their kids to go to exclusive private schools, or divert the money to charters, then school systems could afford to buy chromebooks for all of their kids. Nah, we gotta starve public ed so that parents will homeschool or send their kids to schools that we approve of!
