Although my children are no longer in school, I still check on in school days, more recently in the Foothills School Division as that is where I used to live. Last year they had 179 in class school days and 13 professional days. That is a minimum of 11 fewer in class days from when I taught. I don't think that bodes well for our education system.

See, this is interesting too. I'd say my kid gets a minimum of 1 long weekend per month in addition to holidays and whatever else.
I mean, whats today? Happy Random Monday in April Day?
