They go back pretty early these days. I think our schools don't return till late August this year.

They have changed the starting times in the state of Florida. Most counties will start on the 20th, 21st or 22nd. This was a change for the better IMO. Hillsborough County schools (Tampa) will start on Aug. 20th. However, I have to be back to work on Aug. 6th.

In the good OLD days we got out on or near the 28th of May and didn't go back until the Tuesday after Labor Day! But then again we didn't have "Fall" break, "Spring" break and the OTHER numerous holidays they have now

In the good old days kids had less and learned more. Today there are too many distractions and kids waste their times in MySpace, sending text messages, video games, and other things. When I say to my frinds that I don't have and don't want a MySpace account they look at me in disbelieve!!! I don't have time to waste my time in stupid stuff.

I think schools should go back to starting in September, or even the end of August. Early August just doesn't seem right. But maybe I'm just old-fashioned.

School starts here on Aug 8th, but we are going to have a fall break in October!

See what I mean? What the heck is FALL BREAK? I don't understand!! I know in Az. students must have 180 days of school a year but with ALL the breaks, holidays etc. etc. I don't see HOW they are getting the 180 days?
