Finally! I have been filling out that survey every year saying no to Spring Break. But, what will it take for us to end the school year before June 1st?

I totally agree!! shorten the school year with that week. Kids miss more than 2 snow days they make it up and before you know it it's mid June already. They should also redo elem school conferences with a few extra days off in Nvo totally un needed off. Conferences should be in the evening or later afternoon. They certainly don't need those days off for conferences middle school and HS have conferences after school and evenings while attending school during the day.. So they have many ways to cut the days off.

Good decision. A whole week off was insane anyway. Take that week and shorten the end of the school year. No need to go into the second week of June
