[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way, I love the days off and what they represent. Most secondary parents like them, whether they care about the holidays off or not. [/quote]

Good to know you don't value education. Most. parents and teacher do. [/quote]

You’re an idiot. It’s the same number of hours/days regardless of how you arrange them. While 5 day weeks may be better for elementary students, [b]days off throughout the year can benefit middle and high schoolers[/b].

Parents who don’t mind the current calendar value education as much as you do. [/quote]

I'd love to see some evidence of that.  And the kids get plenty of days off as it is.[/quote]

Right. Kids really should not need this many breaks. It is such a stupid argument and a lazy way of looking at education.[/quote]

It's lazy?  Okay, you draw up your ideal calendar with the same number of hours/days (because that is not going to change) and tell me how that is less lazy.  A longer summer isn't less lazy.  Kids are going to school for roughly 990 hours no matter how you configure them.
