[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher and parent here. I actually think we should have more days off during the school year and a shorter summer break. Kids and teachers need time to schedule doctor’s appointments, decompress a bit, or even catch up with some work. Also, that darn summer slump![/quote]

Totally agree![/quote]

Just wait, you obviously have little kids.  When they get to HS the summer seems REALLY short if they are involved in anything that happens in the fall.  Summer is basically over for us already.  We had a couple of true summer weeks in June and that was it.  They are full in preseason now, every day non mandatory (but mandatory) camps/clinics of some sort leading up to the first week in August where it becomes daily.  School feels like it starts the first week in August with a big lead up to prepare in July that they have to participate in.

I can’t imagine how a shorter summer would be possible for the HS students. [/quote]Actually, most of my children are in college. Sports, camps and clinics are your choice to over schedule yourself and your children. [/quote]
