I also would not open for 1 or 2 kids either.
That was my thought too. It's not so much about them being able to get to my house to drop off, as it is about them being able to get to my house to pick up on time. As well as making sure emergency services are able to get to my house if needed. We rarely have snow days, because it's just a fact of life here, but when we do it's usually because they are shutting down highways and roads, in which case that would affect Emergency Services, so therefore I close as well. Also, my area has had an influx of people from out of state who moved here for work, and many of them have no clue how to drive in the winter, so they usually heed the warnings. If they close roads, you can actually get ticketed for driving on them also, so people tend to stay put.
