i think it's stupid to start cl***** before Labor Day. we
were just told told Boo's school starts Aug. 26. we had
already made plans a month ago to meet an online friend from
Australia for a train ride (Conway Scenic Railroad, the dinner
train to Bartlett) later in that week. so, he'll go to school
one day & then miss one or two days... stupid, but we're not
changing our plans.
besides, what's the point of a couple days of school, then a
long weekend? that makes 2 short weeks where nothing gets
accomplished anyway. it's a big part of what makes the whole
mandated 180 days of school a joke.
