[quote=Anonymous]I wish FCPS would implement a year round schedule. It would be nice to have longer breaks throughout the year rather than a huge chunk in the summer when it's pretty much too hot to go out and play for most of the days. 3 week breaks in the fall, winter and spring would be a welcome change. Traveling would be cheaper since it's not peak times, the weather is more suitable to outside play, there would be less time wasted at the beginning of each school year bringing kids back up to speed. Ds's class last year spent the entire first quarter just doing review work! Those that are worried about camps and such shouldn't. All the places that provide summer camps and spring break camps will provide camps for the intercession times. The supply meets the demand, simple economics. There would still be a longer summer period of 6 weeks so no need to fret about not having the long lingering lazy days of summer. 6 weeks is plenty of time. [/quote]
