[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the life of me I do not understand why people are so insistent on that long summer break. Learning loss is a big problem. Summer is hot and miserable after a while. My ES kids get sick of camps and my older kids that are too old for camp but aren’t old enough to work are bored. We even travel for a good 3.5 weeks and it’s still too long. [/quote] It’s not about the long summer break for me, it’s about the fact that, mentally, there’s an attitude shift and mental break after Memorial Day in May that makes the rest of the school year just killing time and busy work. The sooner we get out after Memorial Day the better. I would be fine with starting much earlier in August. [/quote]
