## Resource

Most Barbadian schools are open today despite the weather, except Alexandra School, which shut down due to dangerous flooding. The Ministry of Education, with input from Meteorological Services, deemed conditions manageable elsewhere — but safety came first at Alexandra. Parents are urged to gear kids up with rain boots and coats for safe commutes. Stay alert and stay dry. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
