[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plenty? Its incredibly short.[/quote] It is normal. Have you not been in the FCPS system? We have been here for years and years. Summer is always 9 to 10 weeks. This year we have a 9.5 week summer.[/quote] Before FCPS moved to start before Labor Day weekend (which was ~2017), summer break averaged 10.5 weeks. It now averages 9.5. Because there is such little happening after SOLs and AP exams, many of us would prefer that summer break is longer and required instructional time was more condensed Aug/sept-may. I say this as a member of a household where both parents work FT and my kids span ES and HS. [/quote]
