Does anyone know what that means for the morning pre-k session?

Does that mean school buses are on 90 minute delay?

The roads are still too bad....keep mine home today!!!!

I find Dr. Jefferson's decision completely irresponsible and dangerous. The roads were barely passable in driving my children to school. I should have kept them home!

This was a very poor decision. I am curious why the superintendent decided to open schools today even with an hour and a half dely. I made the right decision and kept my children home - safe.

90 minute delay with the bus 2 hours late ... it's going to be another productive educational day for the kids ....

Interesting how every surrounding town has closed the schools in the interest of safety. Is Lynnfield crazy?

I foolishly braved the storm to get my son to school. Imagine my surprise to find out that he sat in homeroom all day watching a movie. What a waste of a day. Dr Jefferson should be ashamed of himself, risking the safety of our children to watch a movie. The fact that every surrounding community cancelled should have told him something.
I wonder if he even came to work today to see how bad driving conditions were.

I saw earlier today, for those familiar with Huckleberry Hill School and the back path that many kids, who must walk, use, that is was being cleared of snow after the time when school is scheduled to get out.

Who dropped the ball there? It's a very steep hill .. it's bad enough that the streets in this area where not plowed when kids were expected to walk to school ... even after the 90 minute delay. Not to undertake clearing the back path until after 2:15 / 2:30 is baffling

I think the underlying problem was the fact that we are used to being able to 'see' what weather is headed our way on radar revealing what is going on west of our location. This snow from this storm came from the east and there ain't no weather radar stations out in the Atlantic Ocean.

Having attended grade school in a coal mining town in western PA in the 60's I can only say that the attitude around here is extremely wimpish in comparison. We almost never had snow days - the DPW put chains on the school buses and off to school we went, (and back then everyone knew how to drive safely on snow covered roads in western PA). That and I had to walk about 1/4 mile across a field to get to the bus stop and it often had deep drifts.

Mike , I really find your comment funny when we were kids and farm country ! Well this is not farm country you talk about the 60's that was ahem 50 years ago just how many cars were there in rural Pa.? I bet a lot less than downtown Lynnfield I sent my son to school because he had a test . I think you should have watched these children walking down Main St. into and out of traffic maybe you would retract your wimpish comment . The fact is every town in our area was out and our children's safety shouldn't come down to what we USE TO DO ....Dr. Jefferson made a poor decision this is the fact and yes the forecasters were wrong that is the issue ,but Gov. Deval Patrick was asking us not to drive I don't care about 50 years ago I care about my sons safety today !

The guy is not even capable of being superintendent of anything. He is known as a gypsy educator jumping from one town to another.

In his recordings and papers he addresses himself as "Doctor." I never knew he was a M.D. What an egomaniac.
