How is Montgomery County not to blame for the shortened break?  They decide their schedule, not the state.  HCPS has a full Spring Break.  So does PG county.  The county decides the schedule and the county can ask the state for help.  MCPS took the break away as a ploy tactic and purposely didn't ask for an extension so they could make a big deal about "the struggle."  Nothing more.  You are too gullible to see it.    [/quote]

Prince George's County also had 0 professional days (vs MCPS's 1) and did not close for the Jewish High Holy Days. There are those 3 days, right there.

This is an argument FOR the General Assembly's bill. Let the local school boards decide.[/quote]

I just looked at Howard County and they have the full week of Spring Break.  10 days to be exact.  They also have Jewish holidays off and also do Eid and Lunar NY when they fall on weekdays.  They also have 3 professional days off and another day off for conferences.  Why couldn't Montgomery County do this?  [/quote]
