The administration finally decided to cancel classes instead of risking our safety on those lethal roads. They clearly realized that ignoring 386 of us was no longer an option once the ice turned the campus into a disaster. Enjoy the day off and stay off the streets until the plows …

This a petition in order to get a snow day on Tuesday January 26,2016.

We have only used one snow day.

It is supposed to rain tomorrow making it even more slippery!

We are done with midterms.

Students are coming from far away.

Many other public schools have already called for a snow day.

Multiple roads are icy and dangerous

Some places are still not plowed.

Some teachers bike or take the train to get to work and it would not be safe

The Senior Lot where the math trailers are will be difficult to get to!

We have a campus which would be hard to get around in these icy conditions.

Schools with delay or closing: Millburn High School, Saint Peters Prep, Mount St. Mary's, Bernard's, Westfield, Watchung Hills.

People still are not plowed out of their driveways!

Even a delayed opening would be ideal! Anything really! Just save the students AND teachers from getting hurt

We just hit 250 signatures and the administration is still ignoring us while the roads turn into death traps. It is pathetic that these officials value a day of class over our safety despite the icy mess outside.

We just hit 100 signatures and the administration is still ignoring the obvious danger on our campus. They are choosing to keep the school open while roads are a sheet of ice and driveways remain buried.

The administration is still ignoring the obvious danger of these frozen roads and our icy campus. They think we are going to just suck it up while other schools are rightfully closed. Keep pushing because they cannot keep pretending these conditions are safe for students and faculty.

My bus is problematic without weather issues, let's not make it worse. Even a delayed opening is better than having buses and student drivers out on the roads at 6 am, where there's barely enough room for two small cars to pass each other. If you really want to keep us safe and secure, then take this petition seriously.

All the other schools are close. Also some people cannot get out of driveways. It is not safe for us.

My driveway isn't even plowed out yet. I have not even been out of the house since Friday. It's a record snowstorm, we should not be in school.

I believe a snow day is necessary because a lot of the roads are unpaved and dangerous. With the freezing conditions over night it is only going to get worse.
