We're still looking at three possible options for making up the two days we still owe the kids, the district, and the state...
- Shorten spring break. Currently we're at seven days off - a full week plus the Friday before and Monday after. This option would scrap the Friday before and Monday after, leaving us a full week. This one's unlikely because those would have to be negotiated by the union as they're contracted off days.
- Go to school on June 1 & 2 - two days later than we would've gone. This one's unlikely because retiring teachers would have to miss those two days - something about the retirement needing to start at the end of a month. I don't understand, but my union rep said that it's important.
- Add ten minutes to the school day starting next week. This looks to be the easiest one. I don't know that it's the most effective one, but it does at least get us the made up time before the OGT and AP tests, so that's something.
In case anybody was curious, PCSD's decision was announced today - two days added in June.
