Connecticut woo! My school is on the coastline (according to my bio teacher that's where the storm is supposed to hit worst?). Already canceled for the next 2 days
Yeah, my school system doesn't cancel anything until the day of. We won't hear until 6:30 tomorrow morning, even though we all know it's not happening

I'm so sorry. I know that struggle, man...we got a new superintendent this year but last year ours was from Colorado so he NEVER canceled because he was like "this is nothing" when we got like 4 inches and didn't take into account that because it's a magnet school, a lot of kids have about an hour ride in the morning
Yeah, our new superintendent last year was pretty batsh*t. She was eventually fired by the Board of Ed here because she actually endangered students' lives by making them drive in, especially being a high school with student drivers and such. The only advantage for some people is that it's a really small town, so we don't have people coming from very far. But, a lot of people live out in the middle of nowhere, so the roads getting to the school can be ATROCIOUS for some.

I feel you on that one. I live in SE CT so pretty much every town is tiny and farmy. My town is only ~17 sq. miles and there are only 2 main roads...the rest are back roads, some of which aren't even paved.
I know how that goes. The town I'm in (central/south) is, by area, pretty large, but small in population (for instance, there are only 1,400ish people in the village I live in, which is a large part of the town). Most of our main roads are actually pretty nice, because you pretty much have to go through our town to get across the river into any decently populated hub, so those get plowed nicely. Everything else probably won't see a town truck until wednesday at best.
*magic*
Also, it's twenty-five degrees here, not that cold.
