Fifi, to most clearly answer your concerns (and mine), the green paper survey that came home today says,

“Please answer this survey for one child. If you wish, multiple surveys may be submitted for multiple children, as needs may vary for each child.”

If you plan to send your children to the “enrichment camps,” you might want to complete the survey.

Yep. In case it wasn’t clear, I was speaking in a cursory way to the overall calendar issue only. Obviously the issue of “What kind of programs can help serve parents and kids when school is closed?” is one in which parents have particular, relevant expertise. I’m all for that.

Oh, and this particular survey has nothing to do with policy decisions. It is a query about the enrichment camps that the city will be holding during those weeks. Thus, they need to know what I’m doing with each of my children in order to make decisions about where the camps will be held and what will be offered.

Thanks for the clarification.

CSDMom – my apologies – I totally misunderstood the purpose of the survey – should have gone to the CSD page before for the full details commenting . Of course it makes sense to register an opinion for each child – sorry I questioned your motivations.
