| I would love a week off in February as well |
And you're willing to have school start a week earlier in order to get it? |
NP but for us absolutely that would be fine. Summer slide is real. |
DP and same. Summer break is so long it stops being enjoyable imho. |
| They're taking forever to reveal any details, but Dr. McKnight recommends six professional development days. |
Three of the six days will have districtwide out-of-school time community activities. |
|
McKnight's recommendation
First day: Aug 28, 2023 Last day: June 13, 2024 |
|
Winter break extended by one day
Normal Thanksgiving week and spring break |
Good. |
| Early release days: 9/22, 11/20, 11/21, 3/1, 6/13 |
|
so it is a done deal?
|
No, this is the recommendation. The board will need to vote on it. |
What is normal Thanksgiving? Like this year or in the past when we didn’t have the Wednesday off? |
Like this year. Mon & Tues are early release. Wed is systemwide closure. |
Thanks. While I think 2 half days during thanksgiving week is pretty useless, it does make it easy to just pull kids out if you want to travel earlier in the week. DD said less than half of her class was there on Tuesday. Probably better to keep the status quo and accept that it will be a wasted week than go two extra days in June. |
