[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the O days were a great compromise without having so few full weeks. Students need full 5 day weeks for routine and consistency. If more holidays need to be observed - put the teacher work days around them as well. As a teacher - I would rather have one long weekend that includes a work day and a religious holiday than 2 weeks of 4 day weeks. The one week difference is not a huge change in what is in my grade book and I can easily make changes after the bulk of the work is done for grading. [/quote] O days were a complete waste of everyone’s time. I love the current schedule. People have lots of time (we are talking years!) to plan for these days off. [/quote] As a teacher - I am speaking in support of full day weeks, not the childcare part of it. For my Monday students there will be 3 out of 5 weeks (including next week) that I do not see those students. [/quote]
