Re: my son's school is open, tomorrow

That stinks. Was he going to have the whole week off already or just tomorrow? I know a lot of schools in NY have this coming week off, but not all of them. I'm kind of shocked they're making people come in on a federal holiday. I wonder how the unions feel about that.

I found that somewhat disrespectful on President's Day, no?

When I lived in MD, they did this to us one year.

I'm really surprised. I can only imagine that teachers or even families may have already made vacation plans since this is typically the week off as winter recess for the schools??

Re: my son's school is open, tomorrow

It depends where you live, as I said they did this to us in MD, but MD doesn't have that week off, only a 3 day weekend. Also, they made the call in January not right before.
Schools have to have 180 days whether or not students attend. A day only counts as a day if lunch is served.

Wow! I'm rather sure that that would NEVER fly in the district where I work. At least 1/2 our student population is off vacationing somewhere right about now!!

My college never closed for Presidents day so it makes sense to me, though it stinks for your soN!

Re: my son's school is open, tomorrow

I am a college student and my college is closed tomorrow for the week. I know a lot of parents and teachers in elementary and high school that go away this week so as one of them I would be mad.

Is your son's school open the rest of the week?
