School closures

There have been a number of school closures due to the heavy snow in parts of the country on Tuesday -- with temperatures plummeting to -7C in the morning.

[Met Éireann](http://www.met.ie) have warned the icy conditions may lead to 'hazardous' roads and paths and are urging the public to remain vigilant when travelling. The Status Yellow low temperature and ice warning remains in place until 12.00pm on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Ireland remains in a Status Yellow low temperature and ice warning as Met Éireann warn of the 'icy stretches leading to hazardous travelling conditions,' with particular focus on untreated roads and apthrs.

An Iranian newspaper in Tehran says four months into the academic year in Iran, students have attended school for only 38 days.

The children are left out of schools are those who come from poorer families. According to the report, the number of students who missed school this year is more than 900 thousand. Meanwhile, Iran’s Parliament Research Center reported a 17% increase in the number of students who are left out of school compared to the previous six years.

Give families a real voice in determining their child’s new placement — and offer assistance in the pursuit of seats in charter schools, as well as traditional district schools. Families requested and were assigned to higher-performing schools than students in comparison groups, and they were more likely to remain in those placements over time. This preference increases the likelihood that a student will land in a desired school rather than being defaulted to whichever school has excess capacity, as happens in many districts. The board ultimately [did not vote to close any schools](https://co.chalkbeat.org/2022/11/17/23465364/denver-school-closure-no-vote-school-board-alex-marrero) and sent Marrero’s team back to the drawing board. [Just 60%](https://www.wfyi.org/news/articles/ips-addresses-enrollment-decline-too-many-schools) of the available placements in Indianapolis are occupied. Shifts in Boston have left the district with the equivalent of [16.5 unused school buildings](https://www.bostonschoolsfund.org/enrollment-2023). Essentially, if a vacancy exists, a student from a closing school has the first opportunity to claim it. Districts would be well advised to make closure decisions early and as judiciously as possible — and communicate to families how and why those decisions are made. But there comes a point when it is no longer responsible to consume an outsized share of scarce public resources to provide subpar educational experiences in near-vacant schoolhouses. Its fiasco began in June 2021, when the school board passed a resolution directing district leaders to address declining enrollment. Denver Public Schools recently provided a high-profile example of what not to do.
