Summary
The board approved the proposed 2026‑27 school calendar by voice vote after brief discussion; trustees confirmed snow‑makeup limits and conversion rules for additional built‑in work days.
The Harrisonburg City School Board voted Feb. 3 to adopt the proposed 2026‑27 school calendar.
Dr. Blosser presented the calendar and, after a motion and second, trustees approved it by a voice vote. Trustees later clarified snow‑makeup mechanics: the division has six built‑in hours for closures; the district also added three work days last year that can convert to instructional days if the built‑in hours are exceeded. Options discussed for making up days included two‑hour delays or converting a work day to a full instructional day.
What happens next: the calendar takes effect for the coming school year and staff will communicate any makeup‑day decisions to families as needed.
