[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to remember that so much of DCPS is poor kids in urban neighborhoods. They keep summers short so kids stay out of trouble/off the streets and minimize burden on working parents. The DPR summer camps are some of the cheapest I’ve heard of in the US - it’s crazy. [/quote] Do they automatically stay out of trouble during days off during the school year? Does parents burden go down during other non school days? Some parts of the country have even longer summers than 10 weeks (teachers come back a week earlier so that is 9 weeks) so 10 weeks isn't crazy.[/quote]
