done and great w/ parents[/quote]

You left off two of our original national holidays, Christmas and New years.

85-95% of students, teaxhers and support staff would not attend school on the week from Christmas Eve to New Year Day.

Facts are facts.

Try as you might, not one school in FCPS or America would have enough people to run a single classroom on Christmas.[/quote]

I’m not the person you’re quoting but I read their post to mean these should be the holidays not these should be the breaks— normal winter and spring break but no holidays observed other than the nationally recognized ones.

Personally I think the Federal holidays should represent the number of holidays and if FCPS wants to recognize say, RH/YK instead of Columbus and Labor Day they could make trade offs, but actual trade offs not just adding indefinitely.[/quote]

Only having Thanksgiving itself off is the tell that they didn’t really think about doing that. [/quote]
