closed our freaking school down. Thanks to a friend who is in the "know," I found out about 5 minutes before it was posted as breaking news on our local newspaper website and about 10 minutes before the school sent me a Flash Alert at 9:00 p.m. There has been a "suspected" case in our district, so...
Hey folks, I know you sort of count on us watching your kids for, like, 8 hours a day while you make a living or do some other worthwhile stuff, but SURPRISE! we're closing down for two weeks, starting....NOW.
Seriously, it's not such a big deal for us because we have family that can help us out, and we actually got the message about there being NO SCHOOL TOMORROW, but what about those hundreds of parents rushing, rushing, rushing to make it to work on time tomorrow who drive up and find out that they gotta make some other arrangements for the next TWO WEEKS? Or what about those kids whose parents kiss them on the cheek and tell them to have a good day before they run out the door, leaving the kids to wait for the bus?
I am sooo thankful for family who can and is willing to help us out on such short notice! I have finals this week.

I like your title! I'm sorry Aaron is out for 2 weeks, that is CRAZY! How do they expect those kids to concentrate when they return for, oh, two weeks until they're let out for summer? Seriously? They should just let out now.
