Re: POLL: Friday-Sunday events vs Thursday-Saturday events
While most of my teachers are more than considerate enough to give extensions on work if I have a robotics event that weekend etc. I have had a couple of teachers so far refuse to give extensions. So a friday-sunday regional would have left me no time to do my homework. I personally don't need the "relaxation" or "down" time that people have stated they need the day before a work week, but I definitely do need a day to do my work. Especially now, coming into Junior year. Coming back home from a regional at midnight or 1am, and being expected to go to school 4 hours later is impractical.

While the Thursday-Saturday model does aggravate some teachers, it is the lesser of two "evils"

Also interesting note, the poll is at a dead tie at the time of posting this, 89 to 89. How peculiar.
