[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And yet teachers don’t want to move away from a traditional school schedule towards some version of a year round schedule.[/quote]

Have you asked us? I’m all for it. I would LOVE a year-round schedule. I assume, of course, that you’ll pay me accordingly. [/quote]

Yes I have talked with some teachers about this and they were not in favor.  They thought it would just be more work.  That research hasn’t indicated it’s better for kids learning.  Didn’t want to start the school year earlier. Etc.  Meanwhile I know teachers in other states who have year-round schedules or  a modified version of the year-round schedule and most of them would never go back to a traditional calendar unless absolutely forced by a move to somewhere that didn’t have school districts with options.  Why?  Because they all agree it’s better mentally for them and the kids as it gives everyone needed breaks.

So if teachers here would actually like a year round or a modified version of year round, I would recommend talking to your colleagues and union.[/quote]
