Barnstable And Falmouth Schools Closed Again On Friday

snow day

Look I understand that some people need to go to work and don’t have child care set up for their kids. I realize some people want their kids back on a schedule. I understand that some people are upset because their kids will be in school until July. I even understand that some people just have assholes for kids and can’t stomach the thought of spending another day with them.

That said, try to think back to when you were a kid and imagine how freaking awesome this would be. Cape kids rarely get two snow days in a row, getting four must be like winning the lottery. This is a year that will go down in infamy, it will be talked about for the rest of their lives. They just got done with a long Christmas vacation, now this, and February vacation is right around the corner? This is an absolute once in a generation event for a child, you gotta be happy for them.

Unless of course you’re one of those unfortunate people that lost the lottery and your kids are pricks. In that case you should probably go get a Xanax prescription immediately and start Googling sleepover summer camps.

  1. I'm snowed in up in Maine but my hubby and kids are hope and still snowed into the house in Chatham. I'm sure they are ecstatic (and it was midterms week, to boot). But… back in 2005, I think(?), when we had our last ginormous storm – my son was in kindergarten – they had 5 days off from school.

  2. Back in 2005 we had a whole week off because of a blizzard. I was in high school but it was still awesome then… However I am hoping the college doesn't add their name to the list. I would like to go back to work. I don't get paid snow days…

  4. I'm thinking that they will end up canceling February or April vacation…I remember being in school and they took away one of them…I think it was April…beats being in school until July! I could care less if my kids were home, they're mine!
