That is not a thing in the US - there would be too much cancelled school in many of the northern states.

How? My country is like high enough on the map to be on the same line as central Canada and we get like a week or two of -25C or more plus some random cold snaps.

Also that's completely beside the point since my whole point was to have normal bus lanes instead of a school bus.

Shrug, I'm not a metrologist to be able to explain everything that goes into why it's normal to have -25C days in the winter here. Our cold snaps are down to -35-40C, not -25C.

I didn't respond to your other point for a reason. I only responded to your 'I assume this is a thing in the US' to correct your assumption. Do with that what you will.
