[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone explain why Orthodox Good Friday is a holiday in 2025-2026 and an O day in 2026-2027? It makes the week after Spring Break this year really strange. They have Monday as a TW and then Friday as a holiday. [/quote] It is likely because it allows families to have essentially a two week spring break and only miss four days of schools. Same with Memorial Day being a five day weekend. Families can take the full week off and only miss two days of school. I love the schedule! [/quote] Why? I am genuinely curious why you don't want your kids learning?[/quote] NP: My kids get 180 (minus snow days) of learning. I'm not sure why you assume people don't want their kids learning because they enjoy and appreciate 3 day weekends and short school weeks. I very much agree the Tuesdays off are annoying, but I would welcome 4 day weeks with M or F off and a more year round schedule starting in early august.[/quote]
