My son's school, Churchville Chili HS, Churchville, NY, did not close today. It's brutal here in Rochester today, with free air temps at 6 degrees, with 30mph wind gusts, the wind chill temperature is -20 degrees! Even the Amtrack trains have been cancelled through here (Lakeshore Express) but Churchville Chili HS remains open! Everyone is bussed to school in our district, so there's no walkers; however, they still have to wait for the bus in the cold. We have some hardy kids!
When my kids were little, in the hopes that it would bring on snow day, they'd wear their pajamas inside out, kind of like a rally cap in baseball! LOL :-)
