In your home country you don't have Independence Day, Thanksgiving, Labor Day or Memorial Day either.  Your schedule barely has the kids in school.  They get two weeks off every 6 weeks AND two months off at Summer.  Then you would have to add our country's non secular holidays AND half day for professional teaching day.

Our state has 4 seasons and Summer is our biggest season for tourism and helps to pay for our school budgets.  Not to mention all the summer camps that can not open in the middle of the year because of weather and not have the ability to hire college or high school counselors for those small 2 week windows.  What about pool lifeguards.  Most of them are high schoolers.  How can they work when they are in the school parts of the summer.  How would your schedule and all the breaks work with high school sports?    Sorry, not a fan.  [/quote]

I'm not that PP, but I'm guessing that the PP's country has its own holidays, plus teacher training days, plus tourism and summer. Which means that they solve those problems somehow. Which means that we could too, if we wanted to.[/quote]
