Petition for a Balanced Calendar in Cobb Schools

#130 School Calendar2012-01-15 23:47Wake up people - by starting on Aug. 1st or so several years ago, did you see how it effected the busses and GAS! Did you see how it effected the electric bills in the schools because they had to start turning on the AC in mid-July to make sure the buildings were cool enough once school started. Now, all the counties are dealing with budget issues because of these cost increases for those of you who like to start on Aug. 1st. Also, we have had more heat stroke problems with kids in Fall sports starting to work out in July & early August. Camps are still going on and fun, educational events are still going on in and around GA but no, we can not get our kids enrolled because we start school on Aug. 1st. Who said we had to get out by Memorial Day. When I grew up here in the Atlanta area, we went back to school in late August and got out the Friday after Memorial Day, so an extra 4 days. It did not bother my family at all. If our teachers and kids need a short break, then take a long weekend in February and actually celebrate President's Day - these were some of our founding fathers and take a long weekend in September if really needed! Educating our kids is more important than week-long breaks right after starting school in August and then again after the Christmas break. |

#232 Re: School Calendar2012-01-18 00:52:18Wow so the schools leave the air off all summer and turn it on in mid July for the kids? How do the teachers stand it when they return to they're classes to prepare for the upcoming year? Oh yeah they turn on the air when the teachers return and turn it off after work hours and on weekends. So the air gets turn on on or around the SAME TIME EVERY YEAR! |

Wake up and quit making excuses that don't hold water! The county is going to have to pay for gas 1 way or the other and they're going to have to pay to heat and cool the schools regardless. |

Promote petition "Petition for a Balanced Calendar in Cobb Schools" on this listCops in Utah should know what lewdness means before charging anyone with it
Someone I know got charged with lewdness even though they made sure to pick a very remote spot in a parking lot to have sex with their partner in. They're both consenting adults and have never been charged with a sex crime before. That cop literally could have just let those people off with a warning and told them not to do that again instead of charging them with lewdness and not even telling them about their rights to remain silent. Apparently someone somehow saw them having sex in a car and h...
