[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does the APS calendar compare with the local Catholic schools and independent schools? We are about to enter public school and all I hear from our neighbors is that the kids rarely go to school 5 days a week. Unsure why they can't just take federal holidays like the rest of workplaces. [/quote] I have a kid in private and a kid in APS and the APS schedule is brutal. Absolutely brutal. It wasn't this bad before the pandemic. All of the extra days off, 11 days at winter break this year are terrible, especially for little kids. I can't believe APS planning to make this permanent. [/quote] Also have a kid in both here and the private kid had much longer winter and spring breaks than APS! But fewer boutique religious holidays, so they still started after Labor Day and end earlier than APS.[/quote]
