Those sneaky little Leprechauns on St. Patrick's Day
They keep trying to have their way
But to them, wait I say
We'll get to school on Bus Plan A
For Tuesday, March 17th, two hour delay and bus plan A

Well that was a surprise, but not so surprising that I did not have a poem ready!
We all thought we were done with snow
But Mother Nature will have her way
The blizzard hit and now you know
Federal Hocking Schools have a two hour delay
For today, Tuesday, March 17th, Federal Hocking is on a two hour delay

Here's today's poem, with apologies to Dr. Suess
Do you like the wind and snow
I do not like the wind and snow
I do not like them here or there
I do not like them anywhere
I do not liike them in a box
I do not like them with a fox
I donnot like them in a house
I do not like them with a mouse
I do not like them, I must say
Because they cause a two hour delay
For Monday , Feb 23rd, Federal Hocking Schools are on a two-hour delay and bus plan A.
