[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are lucky. PG county was closed Monday and today. They also have a 2 hour delay tomorrow.[/quote]

MCPS is not in last place in most makeup days! PG will be forced to makeup 7 days while MC has 4.[/quote]

Is this the new race to the top? Who can outdo the other in number of missed school days? Pathetic.[/quote]

At least PG county built in 5 snow days.  MCPS has only 1.

Now, parents are wondering whether makeup days are coming and what the rest of the school year may look like.

In Prince George’s County, Maryland, five days are built into their calendar for weather-related closures, but the snowstorm has already cost the school district seven days.

School district officials will present a modified calendar to the school board Thursday that could add two teaching days to make up for some of those that have been lost to the storm.

District spokesperson Denise Douglas said the school system is considering a teaching day on Presidents’ Day, Feb. 16, and possibly adding an additional day at the end of the school year.

FCPS has 10 snow days and we haven ‘t used half of them, but parents are already lobbying to remove teacher workdays to make up “missed time.”  [/quote]

That sounds different from MCPS, where last year full days already scheduled in June were removed and turned into half days so that teachers could have adequate “non-instructional time.”[/quote]
