Schools close due to winter storm

December 8, 2009 toddvogts Education 0

More than 130 schools are closed today due to the wintry weather besieging Kansas.

One of those schools is Western Plains Unified School District 106, which is where I am employed as a paraeducator.

Having a day off, though it results in no pay since I am hourly, is great. I got to sleep in and got nearly 11 hours of sleep.

Score!

A few other schools I like to keep my eye on are also closed. They are as follows: Canton-Galva, Lindsborg, Ness City, Clay Center, Ellsworth, Centre, Marion, Hillsboro, Goessel, McPherson, Greensburg, Mullinville, Little River, Hays and Haviland.
