GCS chief Mo Green tells the News & Record the late decision to delay school by two hours this morning and to wait until the last minute to cancel classes the last two days is "is in line with how we have typically handled these decisions in the past."N&R:
Green said he understands how Guilford County parents could wonder why an early decision didn't happen here. He reiterated he wanted students to have a full day of class, especially after missing the last two days, but also to ensure their safety.
"I hope they will appreciate we're trying to make the best decision," he said.
I still think we can perform better in this department.
E.C. :)

There are times that do call for a last minute decision. But when the weather forecasters say the temperature will be in the teens and anything that melted during the day will freeze overnight, it seems silly to wait until 5:30AM. The roads are not going to magically get better at the last minute. Green should make the call early enough so parents can plan for their day, call their employers, babysitters, day care, etc. The last minute announcements add more stress to an already nerve-wracking situation. Come on, Mo! This isn't brain surgery.
