Arrgh.  I hate this stupid Hogan calendar.   Nearly every other district in the country gets a full week off in the spring.[/quote]

Not Hogan’s calendar - the board of education selected a calendar within Hogan’s parameters. His parameters are not that difficult!  When you review their calendar options, I think the board picked a calendar that would annoy people.  It’s political. I also wonder if Yom Kippur, Rosh Hashanah, Eid, or Easter Monday should be mandatory holidays - would be nice to know the survey results, but I guess that will come in time.

For OP’s question - I’m not sure yet. We haven’t decided if we are going away for the whole week or just doing a long weekend somewhere. [/quote]

If you look at all of the actual reauirements, Hogan’s peeameters are very difficult to deal with.  Many of the days off are required by state law and/or state constitution.  Including Good Friday, Easter Monday, and Election Day at least.[/quote]
