I think they do that for schools that act as polling places. Schools are usually pretty skittish about strange people walking around during school hours, and when they are acting as a polling place, there would be LOTS of people walking around on campus. I can see where it would make a great deal of sense to just have a staff development day or what ever in order to just bypass any potential issues.

That’s JMHO.

And if they are doing staff development, the teachers will likely not be free to get down to the polling unless it is at their school and they live in that precinct. The breaks aren’t very long and our development days actually went past when students are normally released.
