Greenwich schools announce two-hour delayed start time

Connecticut schools have delayed opening Monday amid deep freeze

As I write this at 5:45 AM, the temperature in Greenwich is 17°.

“It’s not so much for the students’ welfare,” School Superintendent Toni Jones explained to FWIW, “but because our teachers all live in far-away shitholes like Bridgeport, or Seymour — places like that — and in this extraordinary, unprecedented cold, their Teslas have a range of something like 3 miles; they just can’t get here. We expect to reopen when it’s warmer: in June, maybe, or July at the latest.”
