[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No because school is not optional. I genuinely do not understand these parents who pull their kids out of school for vacation unless it is like, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. What kind of mindset is that instilling? And I’m not even a particularly neurotic parent. I just find it so disrespectful and snowflakey. The rules don’t apply to you right?[/quote] That is the line I have taken many times and sent my kids to find it was a wasteful day. I do believe it is important but I also believe family time is important. It is the only time we can visit with distant relatives. If they could guarantee me it would be a regular instructional day, I would insist they go. But this calendar is so dumb, I think very few kids will be there and I don’t want to give up that time for nothing. That is my dilemma. [/quote]
