This morning there is a vote taking place in the state House, an important amendment proposed for the House Omnibus K-12 Education Finance Bill that would give elected school board members flexibility to set their own calendars.
From what I understand, if the amendment fails, districts will be forced to go with late calendar start dates, which would carry the 2009-2010 school year well into June.
We are hopeful the amendment passes. Maybe its not too late to contact your legislator.
