[quote=Anonymous]Both the 2026-27 and 2027-28 calendars look fine to me. But that’s because they don’t include 3 hour early releases yet. It’s when those get peppered in, especially in the winter months when delays and closures are prevalent that the calendar goes to hell. What’s worse, since they run the bus routes twice on those days, they split the county in half. 5 of the 8 early releases for us have coincided with already short weeks. That should be the first thing on the chopping block. It’s also equivalent to 3 school days, so if the instructional hours have been deemed expendable, why not remove those days off the end of the calendar before going after Federal holidays and religious/cultural observances?[/quote]
