***  ASSESSMENT DAYS- Elementary and middle schools will be given time for parents, teachers, and students to meet and/or assess progress

**** ASSESSMENT DAYS- High schools will have the opportunity to administer traditional midterm and/or final exams or to use alternative assessment procedures

TEAM PLANNING AND STUDENT PERFORMANCE DATA ANALYSIS-Teachers will work in a variety of team structures at local schools to analyze and use performance data to develop differentiated strategies for improving student achievement.

If inclement weather conditions force us to close schools more than seven days, it will be necessary to alter the school calendar. These additional days will be scheduled as required at the end of the school year. The calendar will be reduced up to 5 days if not needed to offset days/hours when schools are closed due to inclement weather. Teacher duty days will not exceed 191. One-half days may be modified for inclement weather/emergency conditions.
