[quote=Anonymous]OP, there are so many things wrong with your post, I don't even know where to begin. Do you have any evidence that the post-Labor day start time is improving the Maryland economy? My impression is that it's simply lining the pockets of a tiny set of businesses who are reliable Hogan donors. Why are those businesses so much more important than other Maryland businesses that the school calendar is designed around them? How do you balance any potential benefit to the Maryland economy (for which there is no evidence that I've seen) against the lack of instructional time high school students get relative to their peers across the country who start school in August, yet take the same AP exams in May (and roughly 75% of high school students in MoCo do take at least 1 AP exam?) Why don't you provide some actual proof that the schedule constraints that Hogan places that you're so passionate about are actually beneficial?[/quote]
