[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was surprised by the superintendent's recent email on snow days stating that Arlington has 13 school days that can be taken before we would need to start making up days for snow days. I'm a teacher and all for snow days, but [b]couldn't we just add in 5 additional days and move to virtual after. Do we really need to attend 13 days over what the VDOE requires?[/b] Also on Grade Prep Days, they aren't just for strictly grades. They are the only time during the school year that we get additional time for planning/work in our classrooms without being forced into professional developments that are poorly developed. SPED teachers especially need this time for compiling data collection for quarterly progress reports. [/quote] This. When is the last time we actually used 13 snow days? And how much instruction is really going to happen that last half week in June? It's absurd.[/quote]
