It startled me because we never get calls that early unless someone has been hurt or died. I was never notified that they started doing that, when exactally did they start that, this morning was the first time its ever happened. What ever happened to getting up and checking the news? No, lets call everyone at 5:00 in the friggin morning and give them a good scare to get the day started!

You have no idea how often the schools get slammed with "The schools don't communicate with parents!!" So here is SMCPS trying to communicate, and again they are getting slammed. I think it is an excellent way to communicate, and I appreciated the call. Some middle school kids catch the bus before 6:30am, so they have to get the message out early.

My daughter gets on the bus at 6am so 5:30 was perfect timing

I agree, I'm just saying it would have been nice to know that they MAY be calling, and it wouldn't have scared me!!!
