We have this whole week off for no reason

Haha, snow days, to be in high school again. Enjoy them while you still have them, once you get in college you rarely even see a compressed schedule.
.... and they wonder why students are pushed to skip classes

Is that what they call mid-spring break out east somewhere? Some people I know have that.

Indiana schools don't. We go with the harvest But that's ok, we get 1 spring break and then school is out in May.

As for snowdays? Our school corp is notorious for awesome 2 hour delays, which top snowdays cause you don't have to make them up.

Appleton, WI's school district has two snow days automatically built in for each year. If we use them, we get two days off of school; no makeups. If we have more than two snowdays, the extra days have to be made up. If we don't have two snow days in a year, that's just two extra days of school we have, that aren't necessary.

We had a break in the 5th week of build. We got a lot done.
Our fedex lorry arrived in the middle of a blizzard today, and as such our robots gone (not easy moving a crate in blizzard...)

no matter how much it snows here...even if its the biggest snowstorm there can possibly be..like 30 feet of snow and the biggest blizzard in the world wide universe...we still wont have a snow day!!! lol my school doesnt understand that we have like 5 free snowdays that we can use. bahhh
