15% of the students/teachers that answered the poll.  Only a few hundred filled it out, pretty sure most being Jewish and cared about it.  Not the hundred thousand families and teachers.  So no, not even close to the actual 15% of the students/teachers.  I am a working mom and all of those random days off kill my work.  I pay cheap camps and a high schooler to help me in the summer.  I have to pay about $50 a day every day.   Looking back to previous calendars, there were only 2 full weeks of school in Sept and Oct.  Sorry, but that is not right.  Maybe it is easier for you to take off, but I am a single mom and can't afford it, not can I work from home.  Some people are so oblivious to other people's problems. Talking about breaks for the kids?  30% of the kids that are on FARMS, need the full 5 days of school to eat, have warmth, and company. Many schools try to accommodate kids over the weekend with some snacks for their backpack.  3 days is torture.  But who cares about the single moms.  Who cares about the poor kids.  My kid is stressed and enjoys those all those 3 days weekends and random Wednesdays off.  Spring break was great when it was 11 days off!  We sit around and make crafts.   :roll: [/quote]

Darn those people who provided public input when MCPS asked for public input, drowning out the unheard voices of the people who did not provide public input![/quote]
