Re: back in school yet?
sept 3rd for me. But i think we get out of school later than most other schools. And after school starts, we get 3 weeks till homecoming. Marching band is not going to be fun. At all.

Re: back in school yet?
Yeah...it seems the northeast is on a different schedule than a lot of the country. We always start the Wednesday after Labor Day, then we go until the second week of June, plus a week and a half of exams. If the trend continues for next year, classes will end on the 12th of June and exams will run June 15-24.
It kind of coincides better with the weather...May can be either really hot or pretty cold. By June it's always hot, and it usually stays that way through the first few weeks of September (although it doesn't seem that way this year).
Unfortunately it means one less month of school before AP's compared to everyone else in the country, so in some cases, that means more summer work. But the month after AP's is fun.

I only started last Monday. I get out sometime in May.Pleiades wrote:haha wow. When do you get out of school? We havent even had freshman orientation yet. I havent even started my summer reading yet. We have to read two really long books and then do reports on themI usually wait until the last minute anyway but i never wait this long. We go back to school on Wednesday September 3rd i believe. Thats quite early compared to previous years. We usually go back the second week of september i think.
