maddmaxx ★ Posted September 20, 2019 Share #1 Posted September 20, 2019 From Texas flood country.............. Would you think of doing this? It looks like they went from a dry place to another dry place in school by building a bridge over the water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further Posted September 21, 2019 Share #3 Posted September 21, 2019 At my workplace they would be wearing fall harnesses, the lanyard would let them hit the floor, but they would have to wear them anyway. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this was real action. It doesn't look like the water was dangerous depth but it looks like the kids were able to stay dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Administrator Posted September 21, 2019 Share #5 Posted September 21, 2019 I saw that this morning. Why is school in session? No one is going to learn in this situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickinMD ★ Posted September 21, 2019 Share #7 Posted September 21, 2019 Our school system would barr us from doing that because they'd be sued at the drop-of-a-hat if any kid slipped off the benches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with that weather they probably missed time anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The children get a structured place to go while parents get after clean up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airehead Posted September 21, 2019 Share #10 Posted September 21, 2019 If the kids had to stay at school due to road flooding, wet shoes would be an issue. I t appears to me that they worked their risk management and emergency preparedness plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
