Bad Weather Results in School Year Being Extended
March 13, 2008
As a result of inclement weather forcing the School District of University City to shut its doors on February 1, 21 and 22 as well as March 4 and 5, the 2007-2008 school calendar has been adjusted. Although the current calendar allows for the school year to be extended based upon the number of snow days used, many within the University City community voiced concerns regarding the additional days. As a result, March 14 was designated as an early release attendance day for students and a record keeping day for teachers.
The extended revised calendar also calls for Thursday, June 5 and Friday, June 6 to be full attendance make-up days. Additionally, Monday, June 9 and Tuesday, June 10 will be early release attendance days. June 10 is also the last day of school for students and the last contract day for teachers.
The current 2007-08 school district calendar could be amended again in the event of future weather-related closings.
