Delray Beach- School’s Out...Summer’s Here!

 

Well, we’ve had temps in the 90s and we’re able to get into restaurants without much of a wait. The kids here in Palm Beach County will be out by the end of next week.

The two most joyous times of the year are Christmas morning and the end of school. Alice Cooper

 

 

 

It’s the time of year when children are counting the days until that last bell rings and parents are trying desperately to find enough activities to keep the little ones occupied until school starts again.

Summer vacation is a time when parents realize that teachers are grossly underpaid. Unknown

 

 

Three reasons to be a teacher: June, July, and August! Unknown

I am with Patricia Feager regrding the need for more information. I am sure many parents would love to see full time school years, save perhaps two weeks.

Good morning Kathy Streib ,

Love the quotes! The kids are off Monday for Labor Day week-end and go back to school through Thursday. This will stop as of next year..starting school a week earlier in August and they will be out before Memorial Week-end..sure makes sense to me!

Good Morning Kathy - ah yes.  I remember as a child.  It was third week of June in our area and school didn't start again until after Labor Day.  My sister is getting ready to take the grandkids to Disney after next week.

Hi Patricia Feager The lady is Martha whom we met on our morning walks. She dances to her ballroom dance mucic and we love it!

James Dray I will. She is so excited and enthusiastic!

Nina Hollander I think our school lets out earlier than up north and starts earlier as well.

Hi Sheila Anderson true, but we start in August too.

Been thinking of you Gita Bantwal 

Hi Gabe Sanders and I'd bet they're hoping for a long one as well. 

I agree Michael Jacobs Good teachers are worth their weight in gold.

Barbara Todaro snazzy new profile photo. 

LOL Wayne Martin I'm not sure where she's from!

Joe Pryor That said, many places along Atlantic Ave will need one on weekends. 

Myrl Jeffcoat Thank you for the feature in your group!  And I get choked up every time I hear that song.

Sandy Padula and Norm Padula, JD, GRI NMLS#1483386 some teachers I've spoken with don't like the long break because it takes so long to get the kids acclimated again to being in school.

Dorie Dillard I can remember when we actually did have all of June, July and August off!

Sharon Tara Same here and I'm older!!!

Will Hamm The only thing I liked about the beginning of school when I was a little kid was getting new school supplies. 

Ron and Alexandra Seigel Thank you! I immediately think of ice cream cones and just hanging out.

Sally K. & David L. Hanson it's currently 90 and the heat index says it feels like 100!  

Grant Schneider She should have fun!!!  Tell her to bring her sunscreen and drink lots of water.

Hi Kathy - I still remember those last days of school. Summers seemed so endless back then, and so much better than school.

One week to go in school the kids can't wait until next Friday . . . . It will be tough week for the teachers to keep the kids focused until friday.

Good luck and success.

I think the majority of our snow birds have flocked away as well, so traffic has gotten a bit better, haha.
