Florida District To Close For Entire Week Of Thanksgiving To Save Costs

The South Florida Sun-Sentinel (9/8, Fitzpatrick) reports on the "extended break" that students in Broward County, Florida, will have on the week of Thanksgiving, noting that the "cost-saving measure will cut pay for school employees and could create a child care crunch for thousands of working parents." The school board approved the "employee furlough plan" this week, the Sun-Sentinel reports, continuing to focus on the impact on families and the financial constraints which prompted the district to take this step.
