[quote=Anonymous]There is no particular reason for the April 26 date. The creators of the proposed calendars decided that teachers could benefit from having profesional days in addition to the regularly scheduled ones at the end of each quarter. So they added the convention day back in, as well as April 26 (probably comes late in the year so it can be used for snow make-up if necessary). On the MCPS website where you can provide calendar feedback, I would encourage the Board of Education to make these half days instead. That way instruction isn't fully disrupted, teachers still get a bit more planning, and the school year can end two days earlier. [/quote]
