In Va school is mandated to begin on Tuesday following Labor Day and not sooner. Va Beach on the Atlantic opens 9-4, but Highland County in the far Blue Ridge Mountains began in late Aug due to anticipated snow days and other factors. Easy to make hard and fast mandates. Holding to them against force of nature – not so much.
Either way, I am already a little saddened that the days are getting shorter. I love the long days of summer (although a touch of cooler weather would be nice).

Either way, you get to ease into school with a 4-day week.

SOME schools start before Labor Day. A lot of them had Friday off as well.

Back in the dark ages we started school on the Tuesday after Labor day.

“Next” Friday? And which Friday would that be, Jef? “This” Friday or the next one? Maddening…
