One of you must have confused the others. The two days before Thanksgiving were half days so maybe you assumed these were too. I looked back to when the board adopted this calendar last year and they have always been full days.
No we did not! Everyone had separately thought these were half days. If it was just us the. I assume our school put out something with incorrect dates. We just got an email from the principal reminding all parents today is a full day of school so the confusion clearly spreads beyond my friends

It's because MCPS always does two early release days on Monday and Tuesday the week of Thanksgiving. So as a parent I associate a two-day school week with two half days.
I do as well, but once I checked the actual MCPS calendar online, it is accurate and I knew I had not assumed correctly.
