[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]May 14 is the Maryland primary election. Wouldn’t June 14 make the most sense?[/quote]

No, as has been discussed at length, days tacked on to the very end of the year end up being useless. We've got other make-ups in the calendar. This really shouldn't be so complicated. Use the first make-up day that's available to preserve the others for the additional days that will be needed.[/quote]

They don't do it that way. They wait until winter is mostly over and they have a good sense of the total number of days needed. If there are a lot they ask MSDE for a waiver. Depending on what they say, they figure out how to fit the makeup days in. I would not expect to know anything until late Feb/early March.[/quote]

Unless there's a Snowmageddon, MSDE isn't going to approve waivers. So there's no point in even considering that.

But why do we have 1/29 on the calender as a make-up day if, as you claim, there's no way to use it as such?[/quote]
