The Hamilton Southeastern School Board has approved extending the school day for the district to make up for lost instructional time due to inclement weather, as opposed to adding three extra days—June 2 to June 4–to the school district’s calendar
“We appreciate the flexibility the state has given to school districts to increase learning time before important year-end tests such as ISTEP, IREAD, and End-of-Course Assessments,” Marianna Richards, director of School & Community Relations for HSE Schools, said.
The new schedule goes into effect March 3 and continues through the last day for students: currently this is May 30.
Bus pick-up times in the morning will not change. Drop-off times in the afternoon will be approximately 7 minutes later for elementary students and 10-12 minutes later for students in grades 5-12.
