One of the hardest things to do is bring campaign-level communications to the work of governance, and snowstorms are notoriously one of the biggest litmus tests that less-engaged voters use to judge mayoral administrations. This is an excellent way to communicate.

The only thing they’ll need to add, now that it’s a remote learning day tomorrow, is an explanation for the kids why there aren’t enough school days on the calendar to do a snow day.

Come on! This isn’t a snow day? Let them have some fun in it.

It’s because they don’t have any buffer in the school calendar to make up for a snow day.

They can’t change that and stay compliant with the UFT contract. We added Eid and Diwali as holidays (which was great!) and that used up our buffer days. Most elementary schools in my area will convene the kids for morning meeting and then assign them snow homework ❤️
