What if?

A school named XXXX had a bus of kids going to a boys basketball tournament in Oklahoma,
A bus of kids going to Saint Louis for girls basketball, and wrestlers staying in the metro area - bad weather is suppose hit all area about the same with "crippling ice" in order to avoid having these kids potentially sleep, eat and stay at the host high school (stay in place) They have a policy in place that says make a decision on the available resources - I would want them to error on the side of caution with the students safety for a game or sporting event. The first round of weather expected weather only went about 2 hours south and east of KC.
