[quote=Anonymous]OP, I completely disagree with everything other than getting rid of all the tv-watching at the end of the school year. The executive order in MD is appalling, and I grew up in public schools in MD that began after Labor Day. Adding weeks of summer when families have to pay for camps or childcare of take off work is a burden to many, and prioritizing tourism revenue over education is shortsighted among other faults. The best professional development is when it happens year-round rather in a once-a-year, get-it-all-over-with cram. And a longer school year with more in and out of school breaks sprinkled throughout is less stressful and more productive.[/quote]
