[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody's changing the reality that it takes awhile to clear snow around here.  But is it too much to ask for a school calendar that has enough built-in snow days to reflect that reality.  We shouldn't be burning through our entire allotment during one moderate snowfall.[/quote]

This is the very, very least the BoE and superintendent can do. We should build-in 4 or 5 days to the calendar. And we should identify make-up days during the year that we're actually willing to use. It's ridiculous that we have make-up days identified in the calendar that we're told we can't use.[/quote]

The problem is, what happens if they aren’t used, do you end the year early? Because then you end up with parents upset that they don’t have camps or childcare lined up for those days.[/quote]

You don't get it. If there are no snow days, you still have school on those days. It's ok to have a few more school days than the absolute bare minimum required by law.[/quote]
