[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The winter and spring breaks are way too long. One week at Christmas is plenty. A 12 day spring break is absurd. [/quote] People often travel to see relatives out of state or overseas during winter break. It’s a very multicultural area, and not everyone has their family living in the same town. I do think the 12 day spring break is too long, but that’s just because we didn’t travel this year. [/quote] Honestly, who cares. 160,000 families plus staff means you can't make everyone happy. There should be no surveys. Professional staff should plan the calendar based on what is best *academically* for students. Leave out the obscure religious holidays. Stop having the SB vote on it. [/quote] What’s best academically is to have a much shorter summer break.[/quote] Is it also best academically to have multiple broken weeks? A long winter break? [/quote]
