A partial eclipse is like a cool sunset. A total eclipse is like someone broke the sky.

Meh I saw a full solar eclipse as a kid and it was fine. I mean it's not like we're seeing photographic proof of life at Alpha Centauri or something.
Schools are canceling for this by me. It's being treated like some sort of religious revelation.
Seems like a thing schools could take kids outside and yea know, teach them with?
Depends on the location and timing. For a lot of the northeast part of the path, the eclipse is going to happen right after school lets out. Most of the students would still be on their way home
