County Board of Education has proposed a calendar for the 2015-2016 school year
incorporating make up days. WCPSS took away three days of spring break due to
snow days, causing many teachers, students, and parents to cancel or reschedule
their plans to meet WCPSS’s late notice schedule. To prevent problems from happening next year,
the Board has proposed a new calendar listing the makeup days if inclement
weather occurs.
This
proposed calendar has mentioned the use of full-day Saturdays as possible
makeup days. WCPSS has also mentioned that they would like to improve their
communication with the public. Previously this year, many relied on Twitter and
WRAL for weather delays. The school board will vote on the proposal May 5.
