That happens here too.

Sometimes no buses at all. Other times they say buses will not be travelling down unpaved roads so all the students who live on gravelled streets either have to walk to a paved bus pick up point, get a ride in to school, or miss the day. We also have situations where the buses run but it's up to driver's discretion if they will travel down certain roads - usually narrow roads or roads which require a u-turn are missed.

In any of the above situations, the school is actually open and so all of the teachers are expected to be in.

Depending on how close to the school the teacher lives, some will drive in even if the school is closed to students and get some work done but those who live further afield tend not too.

Teachers here although all working for one school board can sometimes work in a very urban area and other times work in the middle of nowhere. They tend to pick a day care close to their home not always close to their work.
