Now my kids will will be watching videos, talking quietly with neighbors, and cleaning desks and bulletin boards all day instead of half of a day. What a waste! This is more about the time a kid's butt is planted in a seat instead of the amount of time a kid is actually learning something. If you want to give kids instructional time, take away a day from spring break. In my opinion, they already had their break. It came early. Do they really need instruction interrupted again? Good grief! March is a time of year when they are still actually being taught something. Good idea to change the other the half days though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
