[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please let FCPS change that damn 2-week winter break! I responded for a shorter winter break and, for teacher planning, 3 full days rather than 6 half days. How productive are those half days for teachers and students?  Plus, I'd rather adjust my work schedule for three days rather than six to accommodate the planning days.  Also responded to make President's Day a full school day- because that's right around the time we get winter weather that closes FCPS, and they seem to be out of school sporadically as a result.[/quote]

I felt more strongly that we should have Pres Day off, rather than Columbus Day or Veteran's Day - but I guess that's because I always have to work on the latter 2, but I have off on the former.[/quote]

I have never understood why we don't get Veteran's Day off - of all people we should be celebrating and honoring.  If they need to trade a holiday, they should get rid of Columbus or President's Day.  Neither one are nearly as meaningful as Veteran's Day.[/quote]
