Snow day announcement from a school brings joy to the internet

The trend of schools announcing the snow day to their students is all over the Internet, but the video of Swartz Creek Community Schools, a school district in Michigan, definitely stands out.

It features Superintendent Ben Mainka and Principal Jim Kitchen, wearing their school team gear.

“I’d like to take a moment to share a brief video announcement,” Mainka said at the beginning. “I know that one of the things that’s been happening — which is an epidemic across our country — is that superintendents and other administrators are coming up with ridiculous songs.

“And they’re playing music and putting on sunglasses on and making absolute fools of themselves trying to cancel school for a snow day,” he added, looking all serious.

At that moment, music starts and Mainka starts singing, but he’s then interrupted by Kitchen.

“Let me reiterate we are not going to humiliate ourselves by singing a snow day song,” Kitchen said.

But then the music starts again and it seems like Mainka and Kitchen can’t help themselves but put their glasses on and start their fun performance of Hallelujah, adding silly lyrics and some amusing antics.

Once the song ends, Mainka says, “I honestly don’t know what happened. I can’t stand it when people sing about snow days!”

The pair ended the announcement by emphasizing that school would be off.

“For the safety of our students and staff, we are going to be canceling school tomorrow,” Mainka said at the end of video. “Please be safe and stay warm.”

Not only they brought laughter at those who witnessed their performance, but both Mainka and Kitchen showed their vocal abilities.

“I have no doubt the children you educate are being taught well and probably do love coming to school. We need more educators like you guys,” someone commented. “Outstanding!!! What a great job and great voices! You gentlemen are obviously inspiring leaders! Cheers to the SCCS community, you folks are blessed to have these gentlemen!!,” someone else added.

The video of the fun snow day announcement has been seen over 1.4 million times. It’s definitely something you don’t want to miss.
