1. If we are virtual the cafeteria staff is required to come in and food made for families. 2. In line with #1, roads are worse than the end of last week (pic of my neighborhood just now…and I live just off the main road and within walking distance of the VDOT lot). 3. At the elementary level we were told to prepare and send home 3 days worth of work for our kids…elementary are not doing online work, paper and pencil packets only. So there’s no way to have elementary kids do work since we already did our 3 days of that last week.
