It has been interesting reading
the comments concerning school
starting in mid to late August
versus after Labor Day. I am not
sure that even though the schools
wereinsessionpartofthehotdays,
how much learning was actually
accomplished. According to the
weather report on the news this
evening there may be some more
early outs in the coming days. So
the discussion will be ongoing and
