[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Additional days, especially in the fall, would benefit students in AP classes, and to a lesser extent, those who take SAT subject tests. Depends on your priorities.[/quote] I agree with you. As the parent of younger children I preferred the late start, but now as the parent of high school students, including one who is a senior, I see the value of starting the school year earlier in August.[/quote] Kids have different needs at different levels, that's certainly true. But for families with several kids, a different school calendar for each kid could prove a logistical nightmare.[/quote] There have been times when my children have all attended the same school on the same calendar, and times when they have not. It was not difficult to adjust and adapt to the different schools and schedules.[/quote]
