when does school start?

[JAK]

My dd's last day of school is today and I know that most of your dk's are already out. So when you they go back? School starts here September 4th. So we have a pretty long summer this year.

Kids get out tomorrow here and I think they go back Sept 4th also. Dh has a workday on Friday and then other than bball stuff he will be home until football starts in August. :yippee:

My kids go til June 22 and go back Sept 4.

My dk's have school right up to the 29th. School here goes back Sept.4th but we will be moved by then. I imagine the new school will be the same.

We got out May 30th. Teachers go back August 16th, Kids on the 20th.

Kids got out May 23 went for an hour the 25th.
They go back August 22nd DD turns 7 the 23rd.

They always go back the day befor or the day of her birthday...poor kid.

Around this part of Kentucky, we have what they call an "alternative schedule" -- school starts first of August, two week break in the fall, two 1/2 week break end of December, two week break in the spring, then school is out the last week of May/first week of June.

During each of the breaks, they have Intercession -- where the kids can get extra help in those areas where they need it, plus I think they offered some "fun" classes.

They still go the same number of days as the previous "regular" schedule, it is just spread out differently.

My kids got out May 18 and will probably have to go back around the 17th of August. I think it's a Friday this year.

I would love a year round schedule. We have several schools in the state that do that too, but none around my area.

to Kat, regarding year round schools: The plan received mixed reviews at first, but I think people have accepted it now.
