Early release makes sense

People who object to the early release day for planning and training time proposed by the DeKalb School System are shortsighted.

Ask yourself these two questions: How much information do you retain after working eight hours in a high stress environment and can you teach individual students a new subject matter weekly with extensive planning?

I was totally puzzled when I came into the school system to find out that almost all training was held after the workday!
