  1. Unfortunately, it will be a synchronized remote day where instruction will be in real time via video… it’s still safer. .
  2. It’s mostly because of school buses and the risks associated with some of our most at risk students. It’s definitely less about teacher commutes. Plus a situation like this is a scheduling nightmare with low attendance rates and little learning happening. .
  3. I’ve been teaching for 23 years and I’ll probably hear from your wife before my actual school. It’s usually a foot plus for a “snow day” but seeing as how those no longer exist maybe we have a shot at remote. NYC already send out hazardous travel alerts. .
  4. I just got it the second time in 3 months… and I’m the sickest I’ve ever been with it. This is like super Covid (unfortunately I’m on round 4). Feel better soon. .
  5. NYC technically doesn’t have a set criteria for closing. We close mainly over 12 inches, or when the city deems it too dangerous. But with snow and ice it has a lot to do with yellow busing. If buses cannot run they will now shift to remote. .
  6. Schools also close because they rely on state funding which is often determined by attendance. If they suspect that attendance will be extremely low, they will take a funding hit for the day/days. If they close for inclement weather (which is built into their calendar) they get full funding. NYC no longer builds snow days into the calendar. All closures now revert to remote instruction, where we are accountable for attention. .
