[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember when we had half days and people complained loudly about them because of childcare planning. Many parents said that it was easier to have kids out for a full day, rather than a half day. I distinctly remember those arguments. [/quote] Yes and this is why they are gone. It is because PARENTS complained. [/quote] Well they need to trim the 180 day requirement since they no longer do half days. Those 4 combo PD/records days push the start up and/or the end back since the 1/2 day students/1/2 records day counted towards 180 but the 1/2 PD/ 1/2 records doesn't. Add in another two PD days (went from 8 to 10) and an off day for everyone on election day and the year is extended by over a week.[/quote]
