Extended School Day
April 22, 2019
As you know, Asheville City Schools lost two hours of instructional time on Monday, April 1st because several of our campuses were without water.
To make up the lost instructional time from April 1st, Asheville City Schools will utilize its remaining inclement weather time, which only totals 30 minutes. According to the state’s calendar laws, we must make up the additional hour and a half.
We will make up this lost time on Monday, April 29th through Friday, May 3rd. Next week, the school day will be extended by 18 minutes each day.
This means that on Monday, April 29th through Friday, May 3rd, our elementary schools will dismiss at 2:48 PM, while our middle and high schools will dismiss at 3:48 PM.
