Provides flexibility to Wilson County Schools in setting school calendar dates.

This bill allows Wilson County Schools to set their own opening and closing dates for the school year, with certain conditions. The opening date for students must be no earlier than the Monday closest to August 26, and the closing date must be no later than the Friday closest to June 11. The State Board of Education can waive these dates if there is good cause, such as severe weather or emergencies. The bill also allows local boards to set an opening date no earlier than the Monday closest to August 19, if it ensures enough days for makeup due to school closures.
