Yes, but my school system rarely has a full month of school days during the school year! It seems they have a day off at least once or twice a month for some poor excuse. Causes their summer to be about 1 1/2 months long!
Ugh. Our school system has all sorts of crazy days off. Angers me to no end.
I remind people of the wonderful statistic that came out when I went to grad school: People who pursue graduate degrees in education-related fields have the lowest GRE scores out of all fields...and we wonder why school administration is such a nightmare...(besides lack of funding).
That explains why my BIL and SIL are angry when they have to work a full week! Easiest job they have ever had, and they care about their students.
My father's a high school teacher.
Just got hit up for yearbook money, $85! Wow!
which is why i only have a yearbook from my senior year. which kinda sucks but eh....how often do i really look at it? never.

One year i remember being VERY ticked that the "winter holidays" were 2-1/2 weeks!!!!!
g'morning!
found out yesterday that the economy is (finally) affecting our potential customers (i.e., we'll have a drop in enrollment this fall)
so everyone's job is at risk (they just laid off the first person)
so i will have to be cautious and prudent in use of internet
other than that, happy thursday!

Heh. As Colbert wrote in the Colbert-edited Newsweek: If graduates are so smart, why are they looking for jobs now? :D
yeah, our customers are the super-rich and apparently, they've taken quite a hit and are scaling back on their extravagant expenses too, so they'll be sending their kids to less expensive boarding schools.
