School Year Extended Because Of Snow Days

Posted
Cancelled school today will mean another day added on to the end of the school year for several area school corporations.

Many of the area school corporations incorporate snow days into their calendar to avoid extending the end of the school year. However, some of the school corporations, like Warsaw and Wawasee, have used up the built-in snow days and are adding on days at the end of the year.Warsaw Community School Corp. already used up four of their snow days as of Thursday, extending the last school day for Warsaw students to June 5. With school canceled today, the last day of school for Warsaw Schools now moves to June 6. For any additional days Warsaw Schools cancels because of the weather, an additional day will be added to the end of the school year.

An updated calendar for Warsaw Schools is kept at the corporation's Web site at www.warsawk12.in.us

The last day for Wawasee School Corp. as of Thursday was scheduled for May 30. Wawasee already had used up five of its snow days, and the May 30 date reflects an additional day of school being added on to the end of the school year. With school being cancelled today, the last day of school will be a Monday, June 2.
