Seattle Public Schools has released a revised calendar to account for days missed due to the teachers' strike.
They said the following days will now be regular school days:
- Fri., Oct. 9 Fri.,
- Jan. 29 Wed.,
- Feb. 17, Thurs.,
- Feb.18, and Fri.,
- Feb. 19. This is a shortened mid-winter break.
- Fri., June 24
Seattle Public Schools said their staff and the Seattle Education Association worked together to finalize the 2015-16 school year calendar.
State law requires school districts conduct a school year of no less than 180 school days in such grades as are conducted by the school district, and 180 half-days of instruction, or the equivalent, in kindergarten. The district and its partners needed to meet that requirement and looked for the best options for adjusting the calendar that works for families.
