[quote=Anonymous]Starting early makes sense. Ending late doesn’t. Very little learning happens in June, even in elementary schools. Many teachers stop teaching after SOLs and who can blame them. Students are burnt out. Less interruptions during the school year are better and we can definitely find a way to end a week early in June. Also holidays need to be planned better. Schedule teacher work days on these religious holidays. Have early release days scheduled right before one of the scheduled holidays. If you can’t schedule a teachers work day on a scheduled holiday then have the teacher’s work day the day before or day after. Instead of a wishy washy commitment to maximizing weeks where students go to school five days a week, let’s set that commitment in stone. And also let’s commit to ending a week early in June.
