[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a fed. Teacher work days on federal holidays works best for me since I'm already off. The other random days either require me to burn leave or pay $$$ for some camp. I hate it. [/quote]

I’m a teacher. I want holidays, too. And no, I don’t get paid time off in the summer.[/quote]

+1 these parents are nuts. It’s all about what’s best for them and their work schedule and no thought whatsoever as to what teachers need. [b]I hope Reid continues to offer 4 day weeks. It really helps.[/b] [/quote]

I highly doubt you are a teacher. Teachers absolutely need more work days, but I don't know a single one that thought this year's calendar was helpful.[/quote]

From what I've heard, elementary school teachers didn't like it. At the secondary level though, my colleagues and I largely loved it.[/quote]

+1 I’m the PP who said I hope we continue 4 day weeks. I’m not a troll. It’s funny how the second someone disagrees with them, they are called a troll. I’m the parent of a high schooler. We loved the days off. My child got extra sleep and was able to keep up and not have to spend every waking weekend working to stay afloat. [/quote]

I am a parent of high schoolers and I think people like you are absolutely lazy.  If your kids can't keep up, then try signing them up for less. We don't need 4 day school just because your snowflake needs sleep!!!![/quote]

You can’t be a parent of a high schooler. You don’t “sign them up” for stuff. They decide their activities.

Likewise, we don’t need 5 day school weeks just because of your work schedule or because you want to get out a couple of days earlier in June. For what, a few more camps for your babies?![/quote]
