Former Wayland Board of Education President Tom Salingue posted this photo he took this morning of a rural road in the Wayland school district. He said he did so because he overheard so many comments that schools shouldn’t be closed today because the roads are fine. As can be seen so easily, this back road looks like an ice skating rink.

I’m sure the majority of the people who were upset by the school closings didn’t live on a rural road. I’m also sure that the parents of school children who lived on those icy rural roads were very thankful that lives of their children weren’t in danger just to keep school open.
