Superintendent outlines winter safety plan and seeks restoration of lost instructional days
Summary
District staff briefed the board on winter-weather planning, school-safety collaboration with local partners, and efforts to recover NTI/bank days; a one-hour delay was announced for the following school day.
The superintendent's report emphasized student safety and continuity of instruction amid recent severe weather. "It's not a perfect plan, but it is a plan so that way we can have school," S3 told the board while describing work with local churches and businesses to support safe routes and meal access for students. S3 also said the district will try a one-hour delay the next day to maintain safety while minimizing lost instruction time.
S3 said officials are working with state representatives, law enforcement and neighboring superintendents to seek recovery of NTI and bank days lost over the past three years. The speaker named State Representative Tom Smith as someone with whom they are consulting about recovering those days and said the district is hopeful some days can be restored.
