Our schools are not air conditioned for the most part. These snowflakes would collapse in short order.

Our older schools weren't air conditioned but most of those have been replaced. Heat might be bad for a couple of weeks at beginning and end of school year but really didn't need it for most of the year.

Kids where I am started last Monday.

Yep. Was talking to my mom about this the other day. Used to never start before the 25th because the electric company wouldn’t let them turn the air on before then

Last year we had a September heat wave and the little Snowflakes had early dismissal.

Let me know if you change your mind.

@MyTripisCut when does school start?

My grandkids in Texas have been back to school for a week. Them Texans are a strange breed.

It’s 2019. Why are they not air conditioned?

Don't need it. Come September things cool off.

The little town I delivered to for 25+ years had a grade school and a combination Middle/ High School. They told me they had NEVER shut down for "cold weather" but one day I pulled up and they had closed because "it was too hot". Lately as the USA becomes more and more wimpy they have shut the schools down around here if it gets "real" cold. I don't recall them ever shutting down because it was cold back when I grew up.

That is a hard concept for some to believe.

They shut down if it gets too cold because they don't want the little ones to suffer waiting for the bus.

I would say walking to school too but most of them are dropped off by Mommy.

I understand why. Apparently they didn't care about us "little ones" back when I grew up

The humidity drops fast also.

Y’all were just tougher.

Y’all were just tougher.

Parents weren't scared of the boogie man

We really were---and still are.

Guess who is one of the biggest political donors to our state government? The Teachers Union! And they are not afraid of spending against you if you cross them. Millions if necessary.

Have you seen what those kids have done to that hill with their cardboard boxes at the Little league word series

A Travesty
