[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why didn't they just give families full days off?[/quote]

I was told by my principal that that option was discussed quite a bit, but was eliminated because parents already complain about not having five day weeks on the calendar and there weren’t enough resources to spread out across the pyramids. [/quote]

An early departure Monday isn’t a five day week.[/quote]

It's only early departure for elementary. Middle and high school will have full days all of those days. [/quote]

Which still means most FCPS schools…don’t have five day school weeks this year. I don’t see why the fact that middle and high school students will is relevant since they [b]don’t present the same childcare challenges[/b]—still not addresses— as elementary school.[/quote]

[b]School isn't daycare. You should never view it at such.[/b] Be thankful they are telling you the days now.[/quote]

This is the dumbest thing I've heard. Yes, it's not daycare (if by that you mean for under 5 year olds). But it's where kids go daily and you should be able to count on it. That's like saying you shouldn't trust that the bridges are always there. Stop buying in Arlington because you shouldn't rely on a bridge to get to work. Except your tax payer dollars paid $$$ for that school and the bridge. [/quote]
