[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I hope they start after Labor Day. I think starting school in August, even the 31st, is just wrong. [/quote] Disagree. I think going after Memorial Day is just wrong. Kids and teachers are done.[/quote] [b]September through June is the traditional school year[/b]. Kids and teachers will be "done" a week or so before the last day no matter when the last day actually occurs, that's just human nature. August is still summer. We've lived places where school started in August and it just felt weird. [/quote] Sure, in 1900 back when everybody worked on the farm in the summer. Now we have indoor a/c and plenty of states start way before Labor Day and are done by Memorial Day. Imagine it, the end of the school year at the end of May! Idyllic![/quote] And other districts, like DCPS, start well before Labor Day and STILL go past the middle of June.[/quote]
