I saw something online, not sure which school district(s), but they were keeping the elementary kids inside, and just giving the Middle/high school kids a warning. They also said they would have glasses available. I think some of the schools around here made viewers, but I'm not sure. I can see the schools not wanting to be liable if someone's kid goes blind. It's not like they ever go outside anyways!
The county schools around this area and in different states did cancel school on Monday because they did not want to be sued by any parents that kids' were stupid enough to look at the eclipse without the glasses on. That is why they cancelled school and put the kids in the hands of their parents.
