[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. Going to school extra days is NOT an educational benefit. [b]School has tons of wasted time. [/b]The last week is usually a complete waste, too. And this year in APS, graduation is a full 2 weeks before school ends. Yet summer break has shrunk from 11 to 10 to 9 weeks over the past few years. APS used to use the 990 hour requirement. Now, it has lengthened the school day, has 13 built in snow days, and still insists on 180 days. OP, writing to APS staff and the school board is an option, but it likely won’t change anything. [/quote] Agree. But isn't that reason to have more days, not fewer? You think they're going to make better use of their time with fewer days? Or that there weren't those wasted days before?[/quote]
