6-27-13 school start date

The head of the Fond du lac Convention and Visitors Bureau is expressing concern about a proposal that would allow schools to start anytime they want in the fall.  Under current law passed in 2000, schools can’t open any earlier than September 1^st.   Attempts to change that have been opposed strongly by the Wisconsin restaurant and tourism industries.  Fond du Lac Convention and Visitors Bureau  president Craig Molitor says those industries rely on high school workers to fill shifts during

the busy summer months.  Molitor also says fewer people will take vacations shortly before Labor Day.
