#65 Re: Re: Look at Tax Revenue in Sept and Feb2012-01-13 21:02#40: MT - Re: Look at Tax Revenue in Sept and Feb We need an unbiased look at the benefits and downfalls for kids regarding both choices, then compare and contrast according to what is felt to best for the kids - not the teachers, not the parents, and not the businesses. However, with that being said, we also need to see what parents have available for their kids during multiple breaks vs a longer summer break - this is still looking at what is best for the kids, given family resources. When I see my kids attending the public schools, they all but shut off any new learning days before the break and then spend time ramping back up after each break. That, to me, is counter productive. It seems to have happened with my two kids during the year we had the balanced calendar - and, I feel less was taught.

This issue was compounded by unscheduled snow days (which will probably happen perhaps in 1 out of 3 years) and other short weeks due to teacher "work" days. The more focused schedule and starting later in August works better for us. |
