[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could we cancel all remaining 3 hour early release days as compromise? Why does FCPS think that the bare minimum is acceptable. [/quote]

FCPS is exceeding the state minimum number of hours. They are already providing above and beyond what they are legally required to do.

Can you stop saying this? FCPS has more or less failed students this year with their calendar. It has been disruptive to the point of being negligent.  So what if they're meeting a cobbled legal floor? It does not mean they're doing more than the bare minimum.[/quote]

Can you provide academic based evidence that shows that FCPS has "more or less failed students this year".

Are SAT scores down? Are graduation rates dropping? Are SOL scores predicted to be lower than in previous years? Are students projected to be held back at a higher rate?

I understand that you personally are angry, but appealing to emotion instead of providing actual data that supports your claim is what is needed to actually signal there is a need for change. [/quote]

The funny thing is that we all made fun of Midwestern GOP controlled states that switched to 4 day weeks, and now we're supposed to celebrate it in a progressive district?[/quote]
Who made fun of 4 day weeks?  You imagining things again? [/quote]
