[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really care because my kid is not going to stay past the 18th, but what exactly is the legislature potentially doing? Going to say that no days need to be made up this year only? Or is it something more permanent?[/quote]

The bill would change the requirement from meeting a specific number of instructional hours AND days to meeting a specific number of instructional hours OR days.

MCPS meets the number of instructional hours but not days, currently, which is why they're being forced to add instructional days to the calendar.[/quote]

The real reason they are forced to add days to the instructional calendar is that they don't realistically plan for the number of snow days we should have.

[b]I'll be writing to my state reps and asking them to oppose this. Schools need more time in school, not less. MSDE should require MCPS to incorporate more snow days into the calendar -- with a calendar of at least 184 days[/b].[/quote]

LOL. Oh, honey, and I want a pony, and we’re both going to be disappointed.[/quote]
