Not soon enough. The day after Labor Day. Although DS17 starts football camp next Monday, which is like, but much worse than, a full-time job. He looks FORWARD to school opening, because it means the end of football camp!!
I remember when i was in school, we started the Wed. before Labor Day. We went 3 days, then had a 3 day weekend. It was GREAT to get back into things that way!
august 21, I don't know why we always start on a Thursday and end on a tuesday, but we have been doing it as long as I've had kids in school which is 16 years.
Wow... I can't believe how early alot of these kids go back to school?! My DD's first day back is Wednesday August 27th. They do the three days prior to the long labor day weekend approach... kind of eases them back into the groove of things.
Ours go back so early mainly so that the semester ends before Christmas vacation. They were having problems with kids forgetting stuff during christmas break and were spending too many days reviewing instead of teaching after the break. Also it gets so hot so early down here . School gets out in early to mid May down here to try to get the kids out of school in the hottest part of the summer.
