Steilacoom Historical School District (Diupont and Steilacoom).  BAM.  Closed from 3/16 to 4/24 (and tomorrow was already a planned closure for some shit or other).

Good think my new company already has us working from home full time (they don't maintain any offices).

My son goes to school in the Bonney Lake/lake tapps area. Called my ex wife as soon as I saw it on Facebook. Said she was going to talk to the neighbor across the street since she works at the school. She called me back and said there was a big "if" the kids return back to school this year.

Guess we will see what happens.

What a coward Inslee is. Closing for 6 weeks. Why not close for 2 weeks, re-assess the situation and then make updates as needed?

Because teachers' union?

by law students have to have 180 days of schooling. don't know how they will get around this. Also, my understanding is school ends 6/21 regaurdless.

It is insane. The union certainly could have something to do with it.  I suspect teachers getting 6 weeks of paid vacation is a quid pro quo so that they pull out all the stops for him in Nov.  I suspect teachers outside of the 3 orig counties closing schools cried about having to work when they don't, so here we are.

Same with the pot shops/heads, and all big box stores including craft stores, everything open is a nod to his base. Small businesses, outdoor activities, a big fuck you to the people who don't like him. Everything is political.
