During the Feb. 23 board meeting, the board unanimously selected the first of two alternatives to the post-Labor Day calendar presented by director of executive services Caryn Lasser. Under the adopted calendar, spring break will be five days — rather than three days as presented in an original post-Labor Day calendar proposal — and three of the five required inclement weather make up days in are in April. Spring break was lengthened to address concerns voiced earlier by parent and teachers over a short spring break. The 2018 spring break was also moved from the week prior to Easter to the following week.
