Students all over town are wondering whether schools will be open in Woodstock today. Will they be open? Will they close?
District 200 posts its school closing advisory on its website at www.woodstockschools.org, whenever inclement weather forces closure of schools. Be sure to click on "Closing and Cancellations." Is it posted by 5:00AM, or is 6:00AM the magic hour?
A few years ago, I suggested a "traveling banner" on the homepage to alert students and parents to closings. I think they did put it on the homepage for one season and then moved it to the Closings subpage. OK, so it takes one more "click" to get the news.
If the posting deadline is 5:00AM, then "No luck today, kids."
Be careful on the roads, folks. Allow extra following and stopping distances, and watch as approaches to stop signs and traffic lights ice up.
If you are the first car at the light when it turns green, look left, then right, then left. Might be a good idea to count to five and look again for that car that "just can't stop."
