[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are these three month vacations people speak of? School gets out LATE June and starts again late August or mere days into September. Plus, all teachers have mandatory work days before kids begin in the fall. So by my count that's less than 2 months vacation. And seeing as how they're either only receiving checks for when they work or spreading out a thinner paycheck over 12 months, I don't think we can call it a "vacation" anymore than we can call weekends a vacation. [/quote] I agree with you poster. I am all for the 3 month summer vacation. Mostly for my kids but the teachers too! Maybe if they quit increasing the school year and get back to the Memorial Day to Labor Day schedule the would save a little money. Not to mention wasting countless dollars on a bogus sleep study when they could have made the change without the expense a change in times for which they intended to pass all along. The wasted dollars on the study and town hall meetings for show was waste. Then we get to the BOS and School Board giving themselves a raise when we are in a budget crises. The current BOS and FCPS SB are the ones running us off in a ditch. They borrow money in bonds year after year. Anyone know when the last audit was done by an outside company for the BOS and FCPS SB budgets? [/quote]
