Does anyone with half a brain actually realize that when MCPS starts a week early, by the time they get to May for the tests, they would have been in school the SAME EXACT amount of time if they started a week later. We are talking a 4 day difference that with the earlier schedule and there is 3 full days off for marking period grades, occasional EID, and usually a longer Spring Break. But even schools that start in early to mid Aug do not have higher scores. The reality is most fail across the country, unless they teach themselves.[/quote] The people passionately fighting for the school calendar control do not have even half a brain. [/quote]
