Obama takes our summer away,

I agree with him on this issue. Kids don't need 3 months off in the summer. Not many kids are out plowing the back forty these days.

Sorry we need the long vacation to deprogram the little rascals.

The first I heard about the need for a longer school year, believe it or not, was 1949! I was in third grade, figured it was imminent.
Heard the same suggestion every year since.

Summer? What about the teachers days, every presidents birthday, all the Holidays, 2 weeks for Spring, 2 weeks for Christmas, and half days and snow days ...they hardly go to school anymore!
