so today it is the last 15 minutes of ap bio when the principle comes on the pa system and informs us that our school system will be closed the rest of the week because of the rising absences do to the flu and will return on next Tuesday and the school is in an uproar now i have an unscheduled fall break

so this happen to anyone else because half of the schools in northern michigan are closed

That seems pretty severe. I don't think that it is that bad here in Philadelphia, PA. Is it the swine flu or the regular flu?

i think it is mostly the regular flu but one of the reasons is that one of the middle schools closed due to a less than 60% attendance rate and the other high school was close but my side of town is relatively healthy we had 75~80% attendance but i am happy we dont get as many snow days as we should so this makes up for it

and the paranoia is worse i had to go to a school board meeting for my civics class and every body was going for the hand sanitizer after they shook everybody elses hand

We're having the same problem here.
Just 1 state over.
Wisconsin :lol:
I no longer go to school but my friends who do tell me that theirs kids that have literally passed out becuase they were so sick.
We on average are missing over 200 kinds in a school with only about 2k kids..
They were talking and still are about closing it..
We'll have to see though. I doubt they close it though.

Yeah, I go to the same school as Hero, and it's pretty bad here.

With Michigan that bad, only a little longer before it completely jumps over the pond to us imo.

No problem in Ontario

Not sure what the attendence is but its pretty high

We don't have much panic more "don't forget t wash your hands, stay home if you get sick" and so on

If my pattern that is 5 years running remains I will not get sick anytime soon
I get sick once a year and only in a holiday and that really bugs me but who knows this year may break the tradition

and I have had so many snow days the last 2 years its ridiculous probally more then the rest of my school life (that had 1-3 a year) combined

Everything is fine and dandy here in Northern Ohio. I haven't noticed much of a drop off at the university, and my little sisters haven't mentioned anything from highschool.
