De Blasio Says No More Snow Days For School Children

Mayor Bill de Blasio says he’ll know by Wednesday night whether schools will stay open Thursday for in-person learning. But if schools do close, students will not get a snow day. The mayor says all students will be expected to do remote learning.

Taking snow days away from kids forever and making them learn on a screen all day while watching the snow fall. Only the devil would do such a thing.

Glad remote learning wasn't a thing when I was in school also glad he wasn't mayor at the time as well.

If I was still a kid and there was snow I would unplug my router and say that my internet was broken

I am a snowboarder and I’d definitely do that shit if they wanna be shady I can be shady Royo

remote learning... sounds like "homeschooling"... Haven't the kids been through enough? What is the big rush in learning when robots and tractors have all the jobs now anyway?
We should just be teaching how to trade on the stock markets.. o.O School doesn't teach how to manage money or even how to do our own taxes when those are the 2 most essential skills..
