Provides flexibility to Cumberland County Schools in setting school calendar dates.
This bill allows Cumberland County Schools to set their own opening and closing dates for the school year, with certain conditions. It exempts schools that have a modified calendar from the standard closing dates. The local board may revise the scheduled closing date if necessary to comply with minimum instructional days or time. The term "good cause" allows for flexibility in opening dates if schools have been closed due to severe weather or emergencies. The required opening and closing dates for students are set by the State Board of Education, with potential waivers for good cause.
