Sounds shockingly sane. Why can’t we just copy this? [/quote]

Start two weeks prior to Labor Day and end NLT June 18. That's what FCPS has now. I like FCCPS' plan to approve the next school year's calendar in December.[/quote]

Their goal is to end by 6/10. They will only recognize Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Diwali, and Eid Al Fitr as days that can't have tests and special activities (different from FCPS inlcuding two days of the dead, Bodhi day, Three Kings, Orthodox Christmas and Epiphany, Lunar New Year, start of Ramadan,  Theravada; and different from FCPS that gives those 5 off and gives off Orthodox Good Friday).  They will do the federal holidays off -- mentioning because of the discussion here about doing the federal holidays or the religious ones but not both. [/quote]
