Smithtown Central School District: Closed.
Yeeeehaw! Thanks Snow-Gods! Now it’s time to catch up on all the sleeps I missed due to build-season cramming =D
Enjoy SCHOOL, all you non-Northeasterners 
[Edit]Smithtown is about right smack in the middle of Long Island. I like this picture - we were right smack in the center of the system [/Edit]
/me looks at the weather report for San José, California.

Before you cry, look at our situation. Fairfax County schools are closed due to snow. That means no robot meeting tonight. That also means that because they have used up all of their designated snow days already, the holiday on Feb. 17th, the last day before shipping the robot, has now been taken away from the students, which means we lose our all day robot meeting. And they are already talking about more snow next week, so they might lose yet another day.
Sigh. So don’t cry about your good weather!

Ya got trouble, folks, right here Fairfax County, with a capital T that doesn’t rhyme with S and that stands for Snow (okay, my apologies for Music Man fans)
I never thought of it like that.
Sorry for being short-sighted / narrow-minded.
I hope the weather clears up for all y’all.
No school for me either. I’m a bit below and to the right of the “o” in Providence.

Oh, I didn’t mean to imply that you are short-sighted or narrow-minded, I was more thinking of “look at the bright side of life” for you. Maybe it sounded a little grouchy because they only gave us liberal leave today and since I only live 5 minutes away from where I work, I knew they wouldn’t believe me if I said I couldn’t make it in 
Well, enjoy your sunny days, and keep your fingers crossed that Sunday/Monday’s storm misses us.

“Someone’s hand is on my wrist… oh wait, it’s mine…” TBSE
I’M OFF!!! 
You can enjoy your snow days! lol It was like 80 degrees in Redondo Beach on the weekend and on the lunch break for robotics we got to walk down to the beach! That is so cool in February cause there aren’t very many people there because tourist season is over! So I LOVE CALIFORNIA!!! But snow is cool too and it is good you got the day off. Back to school for me!

**So I LOVE CALIFORNIA!!! **
Ditto that, and I have the best of both worlds since the weather is really nice right now and I got to sleep in since I don’t have classes today (or Monday). 
Ok, enough gloating…I do suffer during the week, I promise.
Bad weather sucks. It took me 25 minutes to get to school…and the school is only 7 miles away. There were dead cars all over the parking lot…so the few people with batteries and jumper-cables had about 2 cars to start (I had a battery and cables so I was stuck at school for a bit).
No big deal about missing robotics tonight…there’s nothing for us kids to do 
/me puts on a pair of sunglasses and a bathing suit…
i love florida 
/me doesnt care
today was a day off for teacher meetings…oh well
and it isnt half as bad here as it is there…
Why does it take time away?
When we have no school we get extended meetings.
a snow day is nice… catching up for the week

When the school is closed, then we can’t get into the shop at the school to work.
The 17th was a holiday, but the school was open for us, but after x snow days, then they start having school on holidays to make up for it. The last day was always a major day, last year, I think I was there 9am to 3am-ish, with a hour or two elsewhere for food.

I hear you, but i’m kinda torn because we lost a meeting, and i had a AP qualifying exam to take…
I enjoyed my one snow day in 11 years last year, I’m never going to get one again, even though it’s snowed abotu 1-2 inches every other day or so since Monday (and it’s snowing again now. awesome stuff, snow…)
Just like those from CA and FL, we Minnesotans don’t know the meaning of “Snow Day.” The only differences between us are 70 degrees and a foot of snow (the windchill is -20 here right now). You New Englanders are such wimps!
