[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two weeks over the new year, a week at thanksgiving, a week in the spring, and a few random federal holidays. Why is this hard?[/quote]

It's not. It's just that we have an incompetent SB and some loud, vocal parents who happen to be teachers [b]who don't want to work[/b].  [/quote]

I’m not a fan of the current calendar. It’s choppy. I don’t understand your point. Their contract is still 195 days however those days fall and the students still have 180, right?[/quote]

I think their point is that teachers want students out of the classroom throughout the year, instead of a few longer breaks. I don’t know why they would prefer that, other than needing more time to perform work during the week without students present. This is something I have heard teacher parents I know say. The breaks are good for them because it means they can do grading or whatever other admin work they need to do.  Regardless, the “solution” doesn’t serve students.[/quote]
