Snow Days

I have been urging Michigan legislators to consider doing what many places have been doing in growing numbers. Last November, Eden Prairie, Minnesota, decided to have online learning days.  

On a snow day, assignments will be posted online by 9:30 a.m. Students would log in to their learning platform and see the list of assignments from their teacher. They would just start going through the assignments and attendance for the day will be recorded at 3:30 p.m. Most parents and students say it’s fair.

Plenty of time for fun in the snow.
