[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only thing I find truly idiotic next year is the two day week after New Year’s instead of just giving a two week winter break. I know that’s not what they’re asking for but these really short weeks are dumb.[/quote] From 2005-06 to 2015-16 they had 2 weeks off 10 out of 11 years but not once since. The only guarantee for 2 weeks is when December 23 is a Tuesday and January 1 is a Thursday (last occurred in 2014-15) which will happen in 2025-26.[/quote] None of this reasoning means a two day week after winter break is a good idea. It is a waste of instructional days because so many students and teachers will be absent. If DCPS actually cared about student attendance and learning they wouldn’t have this schedule around winter break. But they really don’t care.[/quote]
