<p>Ease back! Nothing wrong with a little fun! Last year however that was to the tune of 15 days off of school - which is equavalent for 3 unplanned weeks of school off. That is a significant amount that cannot be made up without making the remaining days in class (and homework afterwards) really miserable - NOT fun! </p>
<p>As with most things, it’s meeting somewhere in the middle that makes sense. I suppose that’s why most states have a policy of how many days can be used as “snow days” (for instance, 5 days) before having to be made up. </p>
