[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really understand 990 vs 180 days. Does anyone understand? Explain it to me like I am 5, if you understand. I think a lot of us could benefit.[/quote] As I understand it, the "normal" requirement is for students to attend 180 days. If they miss too many days due to weather, then they have to make up some of them. There is an alternative where they only need a requirement of 990 total hours, and a typical school day of 6.75 hours would mean that's only about 146 actual school days required (or a little more because some of them are early-release). They also lengthened the school days by about 15 minutes to help increase the total hours. The reason for the hourly requirement is to allow more days off for weather problems without having to make it up at the end of the year. [/quote]
