This year school gets out at noon on the Friday before Christmas Day. That gives the kids four and a half free days for shopping or better yet making gifts. When I was a lad we went to school on Christmas Eve. I remember hearing that parents were complaining at a PTA meeting that keeping the kids until the usual 3 p.m. would be a big help for mom and dad getting everything done at home. Noon dismissal? What are my taxes paying for anyway?
In case you are wondering, the Chappy ferry schedule is normal on Thanksgiving and New Year day. Christmas morning however, the ferry will run on the hour. The regular schedule resumes at noon.
