Nobody can tell you this. They are trying to get the legislature to pass a law that lets them skip the days that last week, or the state dept of education to waive those days. But no one knows yet if they will say yes. We all just have to wait and see.

As it stands right now though they haven’t gotten the waiver and the legislature hasn’t acted. They still have to go until June 25 unless one of those two things happen

I think it's a done deal or they wouldn't have put this out to the community. MSDE said it would waive the days after June 18 if they added in one day plus June 18.

They need 3 days.They just needed one more day compared to their original plan, but then they pulled back March 20.

That wouldn't actually be following the requirements of COMAR, so how could MSDE waive them?
