I actually need to know this asap so I can cancel that week of camp, if need be. Will save us $600.

Get your act together DCPS.

I saw a screenshot in the WTU Facebook group of an email from the chancellor confirming 6/17 as the last day. Why they can’t just email everyone, well that’s how DCPS does things.

Why does DCPS pretend that 180 days are required and build in snow days if they are just going to waive to days every year?

By executive decision, school ends for my kids 6/14. It may have costs, but at least it has certainty. I recommend that approach.

I'm going to guess that they were waiting for the rest of winter to play out. Now that it seems as if our snow chances are done for the year, I bet they announce the plan soon.

There is another post on this and the short answer is no one is sure. I have called my school, they don’t know. I emailed DCPS directly… no response.

Has DCPS announced the last day of school now that we've had snow days? The online calendar makes it look like:

6/17--school
6/18--no school
6/19--no school
6/20--school
6/12--school

Seems crazy to have two days off and then come back for Thursday and Friday. Is this really the plan?!
