" What about sports practices for local highschools? "

" c'mon LPS make the right call "

 Who Knows wrote on February 5, 2008 6:15 pm:
" Who knows when or if LPS will call off school. Seems like they wait til the last minute. Doesn't help parents when LPS waits til 06:00 to close school!!! Oh wait, those poor children who don't have heat in their homes or food in the house will need to be in school, let's risk everyone's life because a few parents can't care for their own. What happens to these same kids in the evenings, weekends and breaks??? "

 unknown wrote on February 5, 2008 7:02 pm:
" its pretty sad that all the surrounding schools closed except LPS...pretty sad...thats because the people that run LPS don't care for the students that have to walk home in this snow...thats why a lot of them get sick...and on my way to work today there were a lot of accidents...what if some of them were students "

 Known wrote on February 5, 2008 8:18 pm:
" Sickness is caused by disease, virus or bacteria - not walking in the snow. Geez. "

" i agree Its not right that the poor kids that have to walk to school and all the other schools are cancelled except for LPS think about the kids "

" Just got an automated call from LPS, school is canceled tomorrow. "

 Woo Hoo!! wrote on February 5, 2008 9:40 pm:
" LPS is closed on Wednesday!!! "

 Brian wrote on February 5, 2008 9:46 pm:
" Why can't LPS make up their minds? I just was out driving and its pretty bad, it can be hard to stop. They need to call school off already so us students can sleep in and not get up at 6 in the morning to find out if its closed or not. "

" anyone know about UNL? "

 Bubba wrote on February 5, 2008 10:23 pm:
" Brian....WAKE UP!! It's closed already....read the posts..... "

" Nope, im wondering about SCC and UNL myself... "

 Doc wrote on February 5, 2008 11:11 pm:
" Okay Class. The gov't is not yet in charge of raising your children. You are responsible for their safety, health and education. If you don't think you child should be going to school because of snow conditions, close school. Close school for your family. You are the administrator of your home. If you make that decision and the children go the rest of the time, no one will say anything. Stand up and take charge. "

 Think! wrote on February 5, 2008 11:37 pm:
" Rural schools are more likely to close because you have to travel farther to get to school. If you go to school in Lincoln you could probably walk to get there!! Think before you complain! "

 Lo wrote on February 6, 2008 12:29 am:
" How sad to hear about the UNL employee who died today in his commute to work. Prayers to his loved-ones. I understand schools have a duty to providing education, obviously, but at the cost of what? Clearly, the roads are unsafe. "

 Ashley wrote on February 6, 2008 7:15 am:
" What bout SCC?!?!?!?!? Can some one comment and let us college kids know if we have school or not!? Thanks "

 Jim wrote on February 6, 2008 8:26 am:
" Yes, it is very sad about the accident yesterday that caused the death of the UNL Dean. HOWEVER, in order for him to cross the very wide median and onto oncoming traffice going in the opposite direction he must have been going VERY FAST. What was he thinking? It was snowing yesterday!!! For all you people that think you can go 80 mph on the interstate, keep this guy's accident in mind!!! "

 don't be stupid wrote on February 6, 2008 8:45 am:
" Once again people...YOU make the ultimate decision regarding your children. YOU make the ultimate decision to put your own life in danger to travel to work in inclement weather...IF you have lived in Nebraska all your life, you should know how to handle the roads and when it's too dangerous to go out! AND most kids are out playing in the snow anyway, so what difference does it make if they WALK! "

 Interesting... wrote on February 6, 2008 9:07 am:
" It's always interesting to me how so many seem to think it's someone else's responsibility to make decisions for them. If you are uncomfortable traveling in these conditions or sending your children out in this weather, take responsibility for your own actions! Quit waiting for someone else to tell you what to do. "

 Good grief wrote on February 6, 2008 9:47 am:
" Anybody else sick of people complaining about LPS? It should be obviously clear that they don't usually call school off in the middle of the day, so deal with it. Just because you don't want to be at work doesn't necessarily mean school should let out. And you don't get sick by walking home from school in the cold and/or snow. Give me a break. "

 Hey Luxury wrote on February 6, 2008 11:05 am:
" Some people do not have the kind of jobs where you can just decide that it looks unsafe so you're staying home with your kids. Some employers will only allow it if LPS makes the decision. Go back to your throne or your high horse and quit trying to school us peasants. "

 Good Grief wrote on February 6, 2008 1:42 pm:
" Complain if they close schools, complain if they don't. If they'd have closed on Tues at noon, the parents would have been upset because it would have been an inconvenience to them to pick up kids at noon and get back to work. Complain if they plow the streets...not good enough, not MY street, not my neighborhood, not enough sand or salt. Or too much sand, salt, ruins the car. Life's too short. It's winter. It's Nebraska. Snow happens. "
