Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 4371743, member: 1609"] My 14 year old grandson is almost 1/2 way through the first quarter . His school district started on 7/21 the first qtr ends 9/30 . His district has a plan I think most teachers would like. . They get 2 week vacations at each qtr break , Oct and March Plus 21/2 weeks for Christmas. Thats over 6 weeks plus holidays during the greatest weather.They get out by Memorial Day. First of all summer is the worst weather of the year so a short summer vacation is no big deal.All the schools have AC . Getting and keeping teachers in Az except for some districts is difficult as the pay is terrible. The Districts out here are crazy the Town you live in might not be the District. My daughter has taught SPED in Ct for years [/QUOTE]
