Vacation

Allo, does anyone know if we should have our vacation weeks consecutively? or can they be split up?

Question number 2 are "City Camps" mandatory for us to teach?

Regarding vacation time, there's a thread posted by Virginia that may be of help.

As for city camps, I think it all depends on your contract.  I am part of a regional contract, so I think I can say no to it.  At least they seem to think so; they kept asking me if I wanted to do any camps, and then suggesting that I should answer with a "yes sir, may I have another" to give the impression of being a well motivated teacher.
