Survey Respondents

Overall Calendar Rankings

Draft 1 - Aug. 8 Start Common LikesCommon Dislikes Full day off before Thanksgiving Early start interferes with summer camps, sports and enrichment activities; teen employment; family vacations; and professional development opportunities for teachers High school exams prior to Winter Break Concern about effect of extreme heat on school cooling costs, long rides on buses without AC, and instructional time Equal number of days in each quarter Too few teacher work days before start of school; no teacher work day after last quarter Teacher work day following each quarter Winter break too long: Difficult for working parents and disruptive to learning Pre-Memorial Day dismissal Misalignment with other area school and preschool schedules

How will differing schedules between ACPS and area colleges affect high school seniors who want to take college courses? No day reserved for parent/teacher conferences: Are conferences expected to take place only in the evenings? Continued on next slide …

Other Common Themes (Cont’d) Winter Break: Lots of support (especially from teachers) for a traditional 2-week break; almost as much support for a slightly shorter break Several comments favoring May dismissal as a means to minimize unproductive instructional time following SOL testing Consider building in inclement weather days rather than tacking them onto the end of the school year Consider phasing in an earlier start date over the course of two years Consider shorter summers and longer school year breaks to limit academic disruption; several mentions of year-round school Several comments suggesting an amalgamation of the three drafts
