Presentation
I really enjoyed the presentation on the balanced school calendar. I thought they provided a great deal of background information, and did a nice job of addressing both sides of the “issue.” The questions of how will this affect the local pools, amusement parks, etc. was a very important one to address –one that I didn’t think of right away. The discussions that we had about this topic were very insightful. I think that the sharing of “…in my school…” stories and scenarios have been some of the most beneficial parts of the whole WIU program.
