[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pass it on to your SB rep: Cut a week out of winter break and move school planning to the beginning or end of the year and we can have a longer summer.[/quote]

Very few parents want less than 2 weeks. I love the 2 week break and many divisions do this. They CAN get rid of some of the random floating days to decrease school year.

Veteran’s Day- Should be in school. Was for years and all of a sudden it is now a holiday.

Make some of the religious holidays TWD and get rid of other teacher workdays.

Next year, if they got rid of Veteran’s Day, had school on Columbus Day and made Diwali a TWD, and got rid of the TWD after spring break, we would be ending school June 12 vs June 17. [/quote]

I agree with school on Veteran’s Day and bring back the assemblies we used to have.  It was a better use of the day.  I like having Columbus Day off.

Get rid of all of the religious holidays, teacher workdays and busy work PD that is useless.  That would solve the issue.  Most of the meetings on teacher workdays/PD days are awful.

Students and teachers can take off for their own religions without penalty.  Let us start the year later and end earlier.  -teacher [/quote]
