[quote=Anonymous]Maybe FCPS starting before Labor Day will be given real consideration now. June days are often not learning days but especially in the high schools they seem wasted. AP exams are given on nation-wide test days (over 2 middle weeks of May). Often times this is the real end of teaching/learning and the AP test counts as the final exam for that course. And senior graduation dates are set. For example, my DS attends an independent school that follows FCPS for weather closings. He's graduating May 27 regardless when the school year actually ends. FCPS grad dates typically start around June 13, regardless of the last official day of school. My point is that the school district would probably be better served if a week of school were more front-loaded (the week or at least 3 days before a Labor Day). [/quote]
