[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Early release is a mistake.  They just need to close.[/quote]

No.  They really don't.  Students an still have a significant school day tomorrow.  [/quote]

Tomorrow will be a totally wasted day.   It’s babysitting [/quote]

Not in high school.[/quote]

Yes also in high school. My school made classes 31 minutes each to account for all the lunches. I can’t do anything meaningful in 31 minutes. It’s a wasted day instructionally. [/quote]

That’s too bad for your school. My kid in an APS HS gets a lot done of early release days. [/quote]

A lot? In 31 minutes? [/quote]

I'm pretty sure the 31 minute poster isn't from NoVa or they are purposely trying to mislead people.  In HS, the block schedule means only 4 classes a day.  They drop their advisory period, give 30 mins for lunch and spend about an hour in each their 4 regular classes.  An early release is a valid school day in APS where students have plenty of time to learn.  [/quote]

No the 30 min is accurate, it's not the same in all APS schools[/quote]
