[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We homeschooled when they started giving a day off a week for every stupid religion we don’t care about. So much happier! [/quote]

So you were tired of your kids being home one day a week so you decided to keep them home all the time?

If homeschooling is for you, then great.  I thought about it during covid.  
But the whole "stupid religion we don't care about"  language seems unnecessary.
[b]The vast majority of days off are days they have to schedule off anyways.  
It doesn't seem like a bad idea to have them coincide with major holidays.[/b][/quote]

This. Fewer days off would mean a longer summer. And if what you really care about is the education, long summers have been shown to cause significant backslide in learning. [/quote]

A ton of educational and enrichment programming is available in the summers. Very few options exist for one off Tuesdays, even the REC center camps— which aren’t particularly amazing but are something— don’t cover it all. If you care about learning you want consistency and repetition, especially in the early years. [/quote]
