[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear God, just use June 6th as the make up day.  This is clearly the least disruptive option.  [/quote]

Nah because teachers can't catch up on grading if there's school. And apparently that day is around a Muslim holiday.

Ideal would be every Wed off so all can get a quick break during the week.

Don't try to cover all major religions' major holidays - if people are out they're out. It's winter break not x-mas break, same for spring break. Make spring break in late March- into early April regardless of when Easter is. And winter break should be two weeks regardless of what day Dec 25h falls.[/quote]

In the 1980s, my middle school had a half day every Wed. Teachers had meetings and graded.

Most kids did something structured for the extra 3 hours. Sports, dance, skating at the roller rink.

This would be a great way for kids to do SSL hours or get tutoring from older students.[/quote]

This probably wouldn’t meet legal requirements today for school time[/quote]
