[quote=Anonymous]Didn't read the previous responses so please forgive if already addressed...yes, those are pilot schools where the teachers had to agree to work on an extended day schedule. It is not part of the union contract however so it won't be made district wide unless they can negotiate with the union. Also, I doubt the JKLM schools will buy in. It is really more for the 40/40 schools. [quote=Anonymous] School Year 2016-2017 Calendars The DCPS calendar for next school year is now available online for your reference. Please find a color copy online at dcps.dc.gov/page/dcps-calendars. As you may have seen in the news or on our website, 11 schools will have an extended-year model in School Year 2016-2017. The extended year includes an additional month of instruction, bringing the school year to 200 academic days, with an additional two weeks provided for a subset of students to get targeted support, as well as breaks in October and June to accompany the normal winter and spring breaks. The 11 extended-year schools are: • Garfield Elementary School (Ward 8) • H.D. Cooke Elementary School (Ward 1) • Hart Middle School (Ward 8) • Hendley Elementary School (Ward 8) • Johnson Middle School (Ward 8) • Kelly Miller Middle School (Ward 7) • King Elementary School (Ward 8) • Randle Highlands Elementary School (Ward 7) • Raymond Education Campus (Ward 4) • Thomas Elementary School (Ward 7) • Turner Elementary School (Ward 8) Are they just trying to see how it works and will implement in the rest of the schools the year after?
