[quote=Anonymous]https://www.loudounnow.com/news/is-loudoun-ready-for-year-round-classes-the-school-board-is-asking/article_38038428-7b95-4f35-9f39-2e5e0125f934.html I agree with the following but would also support a year-round calendar if the schedule was consistent I believe the random days off have a bigger impact on learning loss and student behavior than longer breaks, at least at the elementary level. “I personally would prefer we shift to a calendar with only federal holidays and a September start date and last day in early June. There are far too many shortened weeks on our current calendar, which is a challenge for teachers and families." Griffiths said she would support a schedule with federal holidays only but with absences for religious holidays excused; spring break aligned with Easter; all teacher development days held in the week before the start of school; and a summer break of 11-12 weeks.”[/quote]
