We, the undersigned, feel that Round Rock Independent School District's current calendar policy, as well as the tentative drafts for the future calendars, are not favorable to students, teachers, and parents. We, instead, would like a specific change to the calendar policy. We propose to have the first semester end before the winter break, thus having exams before the break. This would, of course, entail changing other aspects of the calendar. However, we feel that this change would benefit everyone participating in the Round Rock Independent School District. Finally, we feel that we have a legitimate say in our school district's policy, as we are students/teachers/parents of this district, and our voice should be recognized and listened to.

    • Your new calender policy's 'review week' is unhelpful. AP teachers use it to cram in new lessons. I've forgotten EVERYTHING over the break.

    • It's annoying having to worry about exams all of winter break, why can't they just have it before so we can be worry free?

    • We waste a week of school doing preparations after break and then take the exams when we could have it over with before we start school again. Also changing schedules two weeks in is going to be difficult.

    • do you have ANY idea how much stress is put on students during their break when they know exams will be given when they get back? CHANGE IT NOW.

    • If we get the results of exams, it will determine whether or not we do better with exams before or after the winter break. Nobody does homework during the VERY short winter break simply because winter break, in its name, is a BREAK.
