CHICAGO — Chicago Public Schools students will have to wait an extra day to begin their summer break this year.
CPS has scheduled two make-up days for the two snow days in early January, CPS officials said.
On Jan. 6th and Jan. 7th, snow and frigid temperatures forced CPS to cancel classes. "To ensure students receive the valuable instructional time that was intended" for those days, CPS has scheduled the two make-up days, including one that will delay summer break for a day.
Jan. 30, which was scheduled to be a School Improvement Day without classes, will now be a regular attendance day for all CPS students, officials said.
June 17th, which was supposed to be the first day of summer break, will also be a regular attendance day. Summer break will begin June 18 instead.
