This has been a problem for the 16 years we have been in the county school system. It is so not fair to the students and is perceived as "daycare" to Loudoun parents. And with this year's start time being sooner than universities … this continued infringement has to stop!!

It's not fair that we have to go to school for an extra three weeks because we have 14 snowdays we will not use.

Yes, please shorten or if an outright shortening isn't possible, why not a longer spring break or an extra break?

We could save energy and taxpayer dollars if we lengthen spring break.

I vote for using the unused snow days to shorten the week in Loudoun County Schools for an added two weeks vacations since the 2017-2018 school calendar year is also starting a week earlier even before the Labor Day Holiday. Edgar E Calderon

Good idea! Teachers could use a couple extra weeks of vacation.

If they weren't used they should be eliminated. If the kids needed to go longer with a deficiency there wouldn't be any discussion. Give back the days.

Please consider closing schools earlier this year for unused snow days

If we were to close schools earlier, the County could potentially save money due to a decrease in electricity, cafeteria expenses, fuel for the buses, etc. This should be seriously considered as a way of conserving funds to be used for the employees. Money saved could go to bonuses for teachers, supplies, technology. It would be interesting just to look at the money saved by not having buses run for 1 week alone. I am in favor of Loudoun County considering this as an option.
