[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Actually, I think we need more school days, not just days spread out differently. A number of times the principal at my school has said they would offer more things like foreign language in elementay but they don't have the time.[/quote] I think different kinds of learning take place during school and during times out of school, both of which are valuable. I do think we have a good balance right now in terms of total number of days in and out of school and I would not be in favor of increasing days in school. I do like the idea of spacing the days through the year and having shorter breaks every eight or nine weeks or so. Lots of good opportunities for family time in that schedule.[/quote]
