Should School Start After Labor Day?
Schools will be closed for four-day Labor Day holiday weekend starting Friday.
The Nazareth Area School District, like most schools in Pennsylvania, opened its doors on Monday.
But with students being off Friday and Monday for a long Labor Day holiday weekend, should schools even open before the unofficial end of summer?
In nearby New Jersey, schools open the day after Labor Day.
Many parents complain that an early school start forces them to give up time for an ideal vacation with the holiday.
