[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did not yet have camp booked for that week so my elementary schooler and high schooler will be in school. [/quote]

Maybe they can watch all 8 of the "main" Harry Potter movies and possibly others![/quote]'

Or they can make a car and race it in the classroom in an activity that involves math and science and do word puzzles in teams.

You seem to want to think that teachers are going out of their way to actively not teach.  Lots of kids attended my kids' classes last year on the June half days.  [/quote]

Lady, it’s great that your small children had teachers who came up with crafts and puzzles your kids enjoyed. My high schooler is not missing a week of an important program to do “word puzzles” and race Legos in late June. [/quote]

Did anyone ask about your HS student and their "important program"?  Tell your kid to skip school if that's what you want to do.  No one is telling you what to do.  School is available for those who want it. [/quote]

NP. Noted. But the subject of the thread is "will your kids be attending" and people are responding that they will not. You can send your kids, fine, but others are responding with their response. You seem insistent that there will be actual instruction when there will not be. At least at the MS and HS level when kids are old enough to just stay home.[/quote]

Not sure who the "you" you're addressing is. Or how you know that no actual instruction will take place.  Do you have magical powers?[/quote]

DP, but after we all lived through the lack of instruction during the add-on week last year, it's not hard to guess it will happen again.[/quote]

Speak for yourself. My kids definitely came home with worksheets and projects that would require “instruction.”  Let’s not forget that there are 150,000 kids in McPS.  Your experience isn’t universal. [/quote]

In what grade?[/quote]
