I now fully echo Raul's concern...

You know, at when I first read the title of the article, I couldn't help but think that you guys were really lucky (I mean what kid doesn't want an extended weekend). But after you guys reinserted reality to the mix that attitude has sort of deflated. I agree totally with Raul. Especially for those involved in AP classes losing half a month of school will be a massive pain (not to mention a tremendous disadvantage on the tests).

As for the issue of a limited build schedule I'm a tad curious. Does this no activity directive also carry over to include the weekends as well? If it's just one weekday it shouldn't be to difficult to adapt to, but a weekday and the whole weekend might make things a tad more more interesting. Best of luck either way.
