ETA: So the school district near me had closed for two days while waiting for test results on one student. Those results came in the first day but since they had already announced the closure for both days, they stayed closed the second day. Now another school district not so close to me has announced it is closing for 7 days while awaiting test results. So if these test results come in say, on Tuesday,and they are negative for swine flu, those kids sit home all week for nothing? Logic people, logic. Make it a day by day thing until you know for sure. What's the point of closing for 7 days for a "suspected" case. Do you know how many illnesses have the same symptoms as the H1N1 virus? Every flu/upper respiratory virus I've ever had does!

What district Dee? I haven't heard of any others. This is out of hand. It'S A FLU.

And LC North too. Richmond district is also.

The high schools that close, well that's not a big deal. I work with a lot of parents from the Plymouth-Canton who are scrambling for child care, having to take time off from work, etc. because that whole district is closed and you can't leave elementary kids home alone.

My kids keep hoping for a closure, but I have pointed out to them that they have used a few snow days so if they get a closure, they'll probably have to go extra days at the end! That's definitely not fun.
