Not to be a wet rag on the session here, but Schools in Montgomery County, Md are ON SPRING BREAK next week.
The credit is for community service, and we can argue over whether this is community service (kids in my county in virginia can get community service for passing out republican fliers on weekends -- so the definition is pretty liberal). But this is NOT about getting out of school.
Michelle should have know this, living in the area.
We sound smarter when we have all the facts. Telling kids to "stay in school" on spring break will not impress them.
BTW, Michelle has the correction on her web site.
They are still giving them credit for advocating breaking the law, which is not something I think schools should be doing - they should be teaching children a healthy respect for the law.
