What if you get the ice during school and have a lot of kids falling trying to get on the bus? It could get bad I think that it is a hard call. Kids Safety comes first but gats we have had how many days off because of snow and unbelievably cold temps. This has been a hard winter and it looks like the worst is yet too come. Not that I would ever want their job at the School District but I am glad that it is not my call. Tough Decision! brrrr
