[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know the official last day is the 18th, but I remember last year I made DD attend all of the last few school days and then felt pretty silly when almost no one was there! Is there a date where you'll just be like, OK there won't be anything past this point? Thanks! [/quote]

Last year the last two days were the week after the scheduled end of year, so there were tons of kids who were away at prescheduled vacations or camps.  That is not an issue this year so I expect attendance for the last few days will be much higher than it was last year.

That said, there's definitely a slowdown in educational content at the very end of the year (although it might be balanced out a little this year by teachers trying to get through the content given the missed snow days and shortened year)-- when/how much depends on the teacher, but I certainly would not expect much education on that last half day anywhere.  But at least at the ES level, my kids enjoy whatever fun the teacher has planned for that day and wouldn't want to miss it.[/quote]

+1 if we made up all the snow days and the schedule stretched into the following week, I would have sent DS to the camp we'd already booked instead [/quote]
