On Feb 24 we asked the question that’s on every parent’s mind. When will schools reopen?
The “hive mind” of beijingkids readers predicts that school will begin on Monday, April 13 and while we still haven’t heard any official reopening date for Beijing schools, the Hong Kong Education Bureau decided this afternoon to postpone the previously announced March 16 opening time again to April 20, according to the Beijing News. The announcement today from Hong Kong may be a harbinger of things to come closer to home.
In the meantime, Beijing’s parents have cast their votes on when they think schools will reopen.
30-percent of respondents are in the “optimist” camp and believe school will be back in session before the end of March.
54-percent are in the realist camp and think schools will resume sometime in April.
The remaining are already hard at work building their concrete bunkers and stockpiling canned goods as they see schools resuming some time after May 1.
