How does Option 2 affect school choice and mobility since its calendar is not similar to others on the Wasatch Front?
Option 2 does not match up with any other district’s or school’s schedules along the Wasatch Front and thereby makes transfers and changes between local private, charter and non-Salt Lake District schools during the year more difficult because the beginnings and ends of quarters and semesters would not match up. However, under Option2, students moving over winter break will have received credit for an entire semester of work that would transfer more easily than a partial term.
