Welcome to Fairfax Underground, a project site designed to improve communication among residents of Fairfax County, VA. Feel free to post anything Northern Virginia residents would find interesting.
Stop complaining about the conditions you had to go to school in as kid. We don't care and just because you had it shitty doesn't mean we should. You're supposed to want better for your kid.
They probably changed it from a delay to closure to annoy us then make up happy again after Tuesday.
School was closed because we are gonna get frostbite.
Prince Williams wants to be us sooo bad
Stop getting mad when we get out of school because you guys used to be in the same position as us.
i'd prefer that my kids don't turn out to be giant pussies like you so that they can keep a real job someday while you're living in your parents' basement at age 40.

Who's complaining? I never got frostbite as a child, and it was just as cold then as it is now. And I figure you'd be in the cold for 30-minutes tops - if that - in a warm coat, sweater, gloves and hat. You aint gonna get frostbite.
You're not climbing Everest. You're not Richard Byrd trying to achieve the North Pole. This is 30 minutes in temps a little colder than we're used to. Okay, it's breezy too, so maybe your fingertips will get a bit chilled. So that's why we shut down the school system for the day?

Please explain to me how kids staying home affects you.
Take a look at the traffic and idiot drivers around here now compared to 30 years ago. Keeping kids home in these conditions improves traffic flow and it's safer for them than being out walking to school and crossing streets.
The decision to change from a two hour delayed opening to an all day closing for schools was made today because, as our bus drivers reported to work, it was evident that many of our buses would not start in this morning’s cold weather. We did not want students waiting in this cold for buses that may be running late because engines wouldn’t start. In addition, the refreeze of snow and ice on residential streets and sidewalks also made walking and travel treacherous. We understand the change to an all day closing creates problems for many, particularly our SACC families, but we believe this decision is best for our students. Thank you for your support and understanding.http://www.fcps.edu/news/emerg.shtml
