[quote=Anonymous]Ain't gonna happen. Parents complain that the school year runs too long in June as it is now. No way would MCPS open after Labor Day as that would push the end of the year even futher toward the end of June. MCPS should adopt a calendar similar to that in many other districts nationwide although not in our area. Schools should open in early August and close the Friday before Memorial Day. High stakes tests, be they state, AP, IB, etc. are all given in May. Why not open schools three weeks earlier and get in three additional weeks of learning before these tests are given. As it is now, the weeks following the completion of these tests are for the most part wasted time in the high schools.[/quote]
