At least for K-11, since the seniors will already have graduated. I imagine we are not the only family that has made summer plans contingent on the Board's original decision. I'd imagine that many educators have also made plans, not expecting they'd be working the week of June 25. And by "plans" that will certainly include air fares and vacation plans, but it will also include changing the start date of the summer jobs that many educators hold to make ends meet. <br /><br />Instead we'll have three days of extra school picnics and extra field trips and extra everything but education for a few days.<br /><br />So call it a "victory" if you want, but I think it's really absurd that the Board did this now.RosieReaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16509678140588070623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-21684295445246837232012-04-04T21:51:16.395-07:002012-04-04T21:51:16.395-07:00Snow days will be made up.
