April 21, 2009

Our calendar for the next school year is out. I'm really not happy about it. They have us off the whole week of Thanksgiving. This means that I do not get out of school for two and a half weeks after my kids get out of school next May/June. There is no reason for us to have that whole week off. It's just stupid.

We also have 5 PD days instead of three. We get two weeks off for Winter Break again. My Spring Break will be a week before my kids' break again. I would rather us have the same week off for that. Actually, I'd rather they do away with Spring Break. I'd rather get out of school in May and not go into June the way we do.

There has been some discussion about PT conferences, too. The calendar makes it look like we have conferences for three nights and half a day on Friday in October, then for three nights and half a day on the Thursday before Easter. But, some have been saying that it's not like that. Supposedly, the high school, middle school and elementary schools all have separate nights for PT conferences and then everyone has it on Friday/Thursday morning. I hope that's right.
