[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think make up days is a stupid idea. So there are 1-2 days less of school this year. Whatever. Time to move on [/quote]

People complain about the poor quality of educational performance, but are always looking to keep their kids out of school. Perhaps examine your priorities.[/quote]

So students should go to school on last day that too an early dismissal day to do what exactly? To socialize? Get their yearbooks signed, clean locker, be feed if buying/getting free or reduced lunch, say bye to peers they won't see over summer and teachers, ride the yellow cheese bus? Build in more days off throughout year to makeup during school year instead of in June.

[b]Start week before labor day. That one week is to settle into new schedules and school.[/b]

Days off for fall time holidays.

Give a few days off before Quarter 2.

2 weeks off for winter break (that's about 10 weekdays and X-mas or New Year's could be two of those days if doesn't fall on weekend).

Few days off before Q3.

At least 10 days off for Spring break.

Summer break does not need to be 10/11 weeks long. 8/9 weeks off so there's more time during school year for schools to close.

It's not rocket science.

They already start the week before Labor Day.[/quote]

More evidence of people who don’t have kids in our system trying to cause a problem.[/quote]
