No Snow Day: Northfield Students React Via Twitter

Northfield Public Schools are open Friday as neighboring districts—Faribault, Randolph, Kenyon—are either closed or have a two-hour delay as a snow system moved through the area overnight and continues to drop snow.

Northfield students aren't happy.

I live off hwy 3 & fairbault is literally 10 mins down the road from me. I don't understand how they're closed & we arent..

I'm so happy for Faribault!! they have a snow day and we don't! Awesome!

I actually love the fact that we have school.....

apparently we can't afford to not be in school for some odd reason. We've had three shots at a snow day this year.

Other than the fact that there's a drift that's taller than my car conveniently placed behind it.. I'd love to make the trek to school.

Good job Northfield you never fail to disappoint us! #dreamscrushed

yes, we have school. absolutely shocking.

SCHOOL'S NOT CLOSED?!?!?!?!?!?!? #ihatelife

Really Mr. Richardson? You expect me to come to school today, but my road isn't even plowed!

Still coming in late though... #haventgottenoutofbedyet

Not even a 2 hour late start...?

Its a joke! Awful.

I hate northfield.

Lol! Northfield kids ACTUALLY thought there was a chance...#toofunny

There is no such thing as snow days in college...remember that high schoolers. #getusetoit
