[quote=Anonymous] I really hope that the schools do [b]not[/b] change to starting before Labor Day in the future. I have lived in two different places where school did begin before Labor Day and we really disliked it. It just felt too early to be starting school because it was still summer! It was still pretty hot and it seemed that the teachers just weren't doing a lot in school or giving a lot of homework because they thought that the kids should be able to go home at the end of the day and enjoy what they could of a summer day. They really didn't start to "buckle down" until September, the more traditional month to start school. I just don't see starting school before Labor Day as the solution to needing extra snow days every four or five years. I'd much rather school go a few days later in June than start before Labor Day.
