I also noticed a link to Doug Kammerer's "colder than normal" winter forecast for last year, which was completely wrong.

That said, I think cramming the school year in between Labor Day and June 15 just for the sake of Ocean City businesses is insane and short-sighted.

I agree. School calendar decisions should not be based on what businesses in Ocean City want. It's only a matter of time before we have a bad winter again- if it's not this year it could be next year.

You are an idiot. The mid atlantic beaches only have so many weeks of tourism that make the state millions in tax revenue. You do realize the state needs money to shell out their money for education, correct?

Hey, here's the great compromise. We can estimate the amount of additional tax revenue that we'll get this summer and next summer, compare it to the tax revenue from 2016 and 2019 and then we'll go back to the old schedule and deduct that additional tax revenue from MCPS. They have the biggest public school budget of the state, so they can afford to cover the revenue loss that their childish protest causes. Besides with an annual operating budget of $2.5B, covering the expected loss of $6-8M of tax revenue is just a drop in the bucket for MCPS. They probably wouldn't even notice it.

You sound just like a typical idiot. You think "Who cares about millions of lost revenue. We really need to start week a week earlier?"

You sound like a know it all who doesn't have any kids.
