[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The "old way" was before schools were mandated to have 180 school days a year. The way Maryland is going to have to do this is by shortening a LOT of vacations and holidays. Also, the whole point of professional development days is to help the teachers as they progress in their careers and throughout the school year. You cram it all at the beginning of the year and it's going to be useless. Who's going to pay the teachers to work until 10 p.m. 4X per year for conferences? There's before care if you need it. 8:45 is great for many of us who don't need our kids getting out of school too early and being stuck in after care for 4+ hours.[/quote] PP here- though I totally agree with you on the no-TV teaching the last weeks of school!!! it is outrageous.
