[quote=Anonymous]In 2025-26 the student calendar is a full week longer starting on the 3rd Monday of August like 2023 and 2024 but ending on the 3rd Wednesday in June instead of the 2nd Wednesday like this year and next year. The school year is already a little long but that year will be awful unless the school year is shortened a week. As for staff every recent year they start in the first half of August a week before students (new staff start nearly a week earlier) and still don't end until June 17 or 18! That allows little opportunity to work a summer program and go on a vacation. The last day for teachers should be the day after students worst case that Friday they should not have to come in a day or two during a new week. As for new school year they should start a week later! As for the 2025-26 student calendar it appears to have the perfect storm of single day holiday closures and should be adjusted to only close on days where 10% or more of students would be out.[/quote]
