The school schedule is just a mess though. The number of non-instruction days compared to when I was in school is surprising. Back then teachers were concerned that they didn't have time to get through the curriculum, so I can't imagine it's doable now?
And then you have this "dead time" as the holidays approach and summer break where basically nothing gets done. And exam weeks for senior high that eat into classroom time as well. It seems like we had more days in school than what we see now.

I think they should do this just for the sake of Civic Traffic. Stagger it a little!
