+1. The reason this was sent out is that next year is the gubernatorial elections and MoCo hates that Maryland has a republican governor. I've been apart of MCPS for 8 years and have never received an email like the one we got today. 
Having the tightened schedule this year has been glorious. We have actually had full weeks versus the bullshit 3-4 only for the first 2 months that usually happened.  Keep it up Larry! [/quote]
I and my children would prefer they get longer breaks between quarters. I'd rather start earlier and end later, and have longer and more frequent longer breaks in between. It gives both the students and teachers more time to refresh after every quarter.[/quote]

So what what one family wants?  The state has an economy to keep and that economy pays for 26.8% our your child's public education.  Your taxes only go so far.  The economy thrives on it's summer tourists. OCMD, Annapolis, Inner Harbor, etc...  We don't have the weather or have many mountains that see tourists year round.  The economy needs our summer's thriving and in return it doesn't go in further debt.  It keeps small businesses opened longer and makes their off-season to survive thru, shorter.  If you want longer breaks in-between quarters or a different summer break you need to find states that have year round tourism.  Otherwise be happy our state can continue to pay for the huge increase in poor immigrant population that is now in our schools.  [/quote]
