[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's hilarious how every June people can't wait for the year to end but in this thread most responses support endless year round school!

The normal people (anti-year round schoolers) need to make sure next school year ends no later than June 10, 2026 at the worst better yet June 5, 2026. FCCPS is August 18-June 5afterall so it's certainly possible but starting so early and still going so deep in June is unacceptable![/quote]

It isn't endless year round school. [b]We get 180 school days[/b] -- I would just prefer them to be spread out on the 9 week on, 2 week off schedule with 2 days off over Labor Day, 3 days off at Thanksgiving, and a 7 week summer. I'm a HS teacher, and I'm realistic about this schedule never being approved. But one can dream...[/quote]

Having school in late June, July and/or most of August would be punishment! It is TOO HOT for school! Summer is time for camp and vacations and other summer opportunities. I do agree that there should be an extra vacation in the school year since January to April is TOO LONG but some of these PD/TW and single day holidays need to be removed to add a break and still not end later. It's only 180 school days if none are canceled (which beats Maryland and some other states) but some of the single day holidays are not necessary.[/quote]
