District 202 Students to Make Up Snow Days in May

The extreme cold that shut down Plainfield schools f or two days earlier this month will mean two extra school days in May for District 202 students.

The 2014-15 school calendar stipulates that if the district used two more more snow/emergency days, they would have to be made up by June 1.

The two days off will be made up on May 26 and 27, the district said Monday night.

The added days won’t affect high school graduations on May 16 or middle school promotions on May 21.

“However, Friday, May 22nd will now be a full, regular school day, and May 27th will now be a half day,” the district said in an email to parents.

The calendar could change again if the district has to use more snow days, Director of Community Relations Tom Hernandez said in the email.
