[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if we make a shorter school year, ending before Memorial Day weekend? So little is done in June anyway. [/quote] Great Idea! [/quote] How do you get the state required 180 days?[/quote] It's not days required, it is hours required. How about long days per week? I wonder how much would be saved in busing, electricity etc. Although, parents would be required to find additional care, so would their money be better spent on increased taxes to keep schools open 5 days a week?[/quote] If the days are longer but fewer, then there will be more homework per day and less time to do homework and other activities. That probably means even less sleep for the students. [/quote]
