If you are going to year-round, then won't you be able to travel during the off-weeks? I have lived in 2 different states with year-round. One state had 1 track of students - on 9 weeks, off for 3; but the other state had 4 tracks of students with one track always off. The tracks still went to school for 9 weeks and off for 3, but all tracks were on different schedules. The principal used to wear a necklace with 3 color-coded dolls to help her remember which tracks were in school. The teachers there still got off-track vacations though - it was as if there were almost two full slates of teachers to keep it all going. I always said if I worked in year-roud, I would want the one-track system, so I could travel on the 3 weeks off. I am glad my plans are made before I sign contracts for next year - I will be up front about it and make sure they know and are okay with my being gone a week in October.

We are going from a YRE to a Modified Traditional. Unfortunately the sports around here won out and our time off are around the major holidays. I'm sure if I wanted to fight it I could, since it states no where in my contract that I have to take vacation while students are out. I hear that the school board may revisit the calendar again and make it a more modified calendar like the other districts around here. Which would mean at least a week or two off in October.

Hey Walt,

Did you get that pic off of Drudge's site?

That is the exact pic they are using to say that ACORN signed up Mickey Mouse to vote.

Yeah, there won't be any vote fraud or stealing of this year's election.

Don't be too quick to discount it!

We took the girls up parasailing at CC last May. It was awesome! The girls loved it. I couldn't think of a better activity than that. Matthew has the video he took posted on youtube. Sorry, I don't have a link, but you can search for it. (Parasailing, Castaway Cay or Disney Wonder, May 2008). Check out Sarah's face and listen to the excitement...then decided! The view of Castaway Cay was amazing and Matthew also took a great still while he was up there!

we loved the parasailing!!!
it was the first time for us after having it cancelled twicw before.

but at that price, once was enough.
now robin wants to do the zip line.

Anyone else book for 2010 today?

Can you believe that 2010 is cheaper than 2009? I was shocked at that, but very happy.

So which one are you looking at?

Zip lining sounds fun. This time we are renting a couple of jet skis. I think we are going to do that in St. Maarten.

I went zip lining with my 76 year old father in St. Lucia last April. I can't believe how much fun it was!!!

Thought I would jump in and say. Took the Jeep Patriot to have oil changed and tires rotated so I guess it's ready for another Maine Winter.
Nancy is subbing today and tomorrow and Friday so I get left with the honey do list.
Joan glad to hear from you yesterday glad your feeling better.
Ask Roger what are we going to do about our Sox. Maybe they will do what they did last year and come back and win three in a row.

Where are the Conk Cooler's

Count us in for Hawaii in 2010...

Being Retired and with current stock value, won't be able to afford more than one trip out of US, unless Jeff shares those "money trees" with us Texans...
