This.  If the school year is extended, it will cost MCPS millions.  Entire buildings have to be air conditioned.  Thousands of hourly employees will have to be paid.

Furthermore, how about all the years MCPS went beyond the 180 day mandate due to few snow days?  The winters of 10-11 and 11-12 didn't have any snow days, so that's 8 extra days of school right there.  Over the course of a child's years in MCPS it more than evens out.

In the end, count on ONE day added.  No way will schools open beyond Friday June 13.  Mark my words![/quote]

[b]Then why have the stipulation for extended days if they are never going to abide by it[/b].  Doesn't teach our kids well now does it? [/quote]

Who said "never going to abide by it"? MCPS has to apply for a waiver from the state. They may or may not get the waiver, for some or all of the days.[/quote]

Please post a year they requested a waiver and was denied? [/quote]
