This school year, students used up all extra school days built in for bad weather, not for hurricanes or tropical storms but for ice. Then ice forced CCSD into further closure. In order to compensate for those instructional days, the Board of Trustees, acting upon the superintendent's recommendation, changed June 6, which had originally been a "teacher workday," to a make-up day. The action seems sensible until you realize what it means.
On June 6, CCSD will run its full bus contingent, feed students, and cool all its buildings for a fraction of enrolled students. How can I predict rampant absenteeism so far in advance?
By June 6, CCSD will have held its graduation ceremonies. Testing will be completed. Textbooks will be packed away.
So, what will the expense of running the schools on that day accomplish?
Babysitting.

Buses ran but kitchens are closed on half days so no meals were served, and the buildings are powered up and run A/C even on non attendance days. Keeping the P and C honest are you? Perhaps you should focus on getting your own shit in one sock.
