Lame

I hate half days of school. Seriously why even bother? We have to still get up at the crack of dawn to get ready, only to turn around 2 short hours later and pick the kids back up. Why not just do away with school that day in general?

What could they possibly accomplish in that time frame? They need atleast 5 minutes to settle down when they first arrive. Then they have a 30 minute lunch. Then you can't forget the 15 minute recess. Then they need 5 minutes to pack back up. So that now leaves what? Alittle over an hour for learning? Psshaw!

If you can tell, yesterday and today were half days of school and I'm NOT amused.

lol. I agree, if you are going to do it, it's all or nothing.

What's worse is the half days are always in the morning so if you have afternoon kindergarten you're screwed...

Totally lame to have 2 in a row too. What whack-ohs!

That's so annoying! But they have the half days because they still get credit for full days for their budget, etc. if the kids are there for one hour or 8. At Henry's school they don't have lunch on half-days. But it's still annoying.
