[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]for HS I hope for Asch Mondays, I think that gives a day to catch up on work, study for tests, doc appointments etc[/quote]

I wish they would bring back half-day Mondays.  It was a win-win for teachers and students. No random and arbitrary teacher workdays scattered on the calendar bc the half-day Mondays allowed time for development and planning. And [b]parents liked it[/b] bc it was consistent and manageable. And us students liked it.[/quote]

I remember it differently. Parents lobbied to do away with early release (the student day was longer than a half day) Mondays.[/quote]

As this thread shows, parents bi--- and whine about anything. This is a good compromise with predictable built in early release days. They should absolutely do this but, of course, will not.

They should also allow for remote learning on individual basis for kids who are home sick (sick enough not to go; but able to sit through a lesson). And they should only have a bare bones number of hours dedicated to snow days, and give the rest back. There is ZERO need for the number currently built into the calendar. This is my wish list but I am aware it will not happen.[/quote]
