What I do mind is being closed the day after Easter. No other school districts are closed on Easter Monday.  And being closed for primaries and elections. When I was a kid, our schools weren't closed on election days.

Why, exactly, do you mind? Schools are closed on election days because they are used as polling places.  It would be a major safety issue to have people walking in and out of school all day while students were there--not to mention there would be no gym to conduct PE classes and no cafeteria in which to feed students.

What I mind regarding elections is what I said. When I was in school, our schools were polling places but were still open. I DO understand the reason for the closure, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. It's a PITA.

Our school only uses 1 room for polling places (the cafeteria), but the gym is sufficiently large enough. Another school nearby uses the gym but not the cafeteria. So there would be no PE. But there is also no PE when schools are closed for a holiday or workday or snow... or there is an assembly or field trip during that time... or it's a half day.  [/quote]
