shore leave anyone?

as its friday night the issue that POPED into my little tired noggin is this, school year, is 10 months okay, is it too long or should it be all year long? now as a teacher we are VERY use to having summers off and would be hard pressed to relenquish them, but is there pluses to this senario? well assuming no increase to curriculum load per grade came with it, it would give those few extra months that would give wiggle room in a typically hectic schedual to get everything covered propperly to be ready for provincial testing, also it would give days that could be FUN!!!! we could do the field trips and lose a class to a guest speaker that enrich the learning.

just a sleepy thought
