Make-up Day
Last evening, the Board of Education approved the use of February 17 as the make-up day for the January 28th cold weather cancellation. The Board's decision was based on feedback received from parents and staff through a survey.
The survey results were as follows:
537 people responded including 397 parents and 163 staff (some indicated both options)
416 people voted to use February 17th as a make-up day
73 people voted against using February 17th as a make-up day
48 people did not have a preference
Thank you to everyone that provided feedback.
The district understands that families may have already made plans on February 17, therefore, parents can excuse their child from instruction that day. As always, your understanding and feedback are appreciated.
Based on the February 2nd predictions from Pennsylvania's groundhog Punxsutawney Phil and Sun Prairie's groundhog Jimmy, we may not yet be out of the wood in terms of winter
