[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m completely against year round school and am hoping LCPS doesn’t head that direction. I love summer break.[/quote] Did you even look at the sample calendar? There’s still a summer break, it’s just 5-6 weeks instead of 8+. [/quote] Yes, but I much prefer a longer summer break that makes it easier to coordinate and travel with family in other districts. [/quote] The year round calendar had the majority of summer break in June with school restarting in mid July. Not ideal in any way.[/quote] Consider how miserably hot July and August are and how little you can actually be outside for a lot of the day during those months. Now add 2 weeks off in late September, 2 weeks in April for spring break and a 3 week break in December/January. Such a no brainer for me. So many more opportunities to enjoy time off vs 8+ weeks in 103 degree heat. I think it will be very popular with many families and staff. [/quote] It sounds lovely if your kids are little and you don’t work so you can travel. It sounds like hell to everyone else. Working parents need to find camp in the winter instead of the summer. Forget the outdoor options now. Older kids don’t get to go away to be camp counselors, for pre college programs or for internships anymore. [/quote]
