[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most likely, but there are some in the BOE who would prefer a week earlier. That would be the 19th[/quote] That’s absurd. [/quote] A significant number of states start school early or mid-August and get out by Memorial Day. Academically it’s better. Kids really don’t learn much in June, and for high schools, an extra week of instruction before AP/IB testing would make a big difference. I hope they start earlier, and give a four day weekend for Labor Day.[/quote] Kids don’t learn much in June? Lol okay…..the states that do start in early august actually hate it. It’s too hot for recess/PE, etc. The calendar is perfectly fine. [/quote] Beg to differ. Lived in a stated that started early/mid Aug. I MUCh prefer that schedule. We might not have liked starting that early, be we appreciated the breaks and being done by Memorial Day.[/quote]
