[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they will drop the Feb. break with this late start.[/quote] I pray they don’t. This is our Christmas and Spring break vacationing time.[/quote] Agree. We love the Feb break.[/quote] NP. I don't think we should have both. Either Feb or Spring break. I'm a high school parent. The more breaks before May 1 is detrimental to students who are taking AP classes and exams; those exams are the first week of May. Pushing 10 hours of instruction past the tests makes little sense. For younger students, especially for those who are below grade level, it probably affects PARCC scores as well.[/quote] I don't mind the extra break being transplants it is nice to break up travel. If your kid is truly at the AP level I don't think a extra break is going to hurt them. If it bugs you that much put them in a study camp for the week. Let the rest of us have our family time.
