Positive News Stories to start your day!
Happy Friday!
Today is…No Homework Day
No Homework Day is as self-explanatory as it sounds. It is a day when students—whether they are in elementary school, middle school, high school, or college—are not to be given any homework for the day. The holiday takes place twice during the school year, both times in Spring. It first takes place on the last Friday in March. It is unknown who placed the holiday at this time. The second time it takes place is on May 6. The holiday on that date was created by Thomas and Ruth Roy of Wellcat Holidays, who said, “Give ’em a break, teachers! These young folks are working harder than Mom ‘n’ Dad.”
