Remove all the religious holidays from the calendar. Public schools should not celebrate religious holidays.

+1 that would get us an extra week depending on how they fall (cue the pedant asking if we'd like to work on Christmas)

Removing a week means we pay an extra week of summer camp. No thanks. It's far easier to accommodate when they kids have a day off here and there.

An extra week of summer? No thanks. But a week long fall break? Sounds great!
