Shelton School Calendar 'Heavily Impacted'

Right now April break will consist of one day, unless another snow day hits — then it'll be wiped out and days will be added onto the end of the year.


Inclement weather is taking a toll on the school calendar.

Already, Shelton Public Schools have lost 11 days in the 2012-13 school year — four of those from the recent blizzard. That means April vacation is down to one day — Monday, April 15.

Another snow day would wipe that day out, too, and then any additional lost days would be tacked onto the school year, according to a message from Superintendent of Schools Freeman Burr, posted on the district's website.

Right now, the last day of school is scheduled for Friday, June 21.
