ID: SCHOOL DAY
The length of the school day is established in the collective bargaining agreements with the various school unions. The specific opening and closing times of the schools will be recommended by the Superintendent and set by the Committee.
The Superintendent is authorized to make minor changes in opening and closing times to simplify transportation scheduling; however, major changes in schedules will be subject to Committee approval.
Parents and guardians will be informed of the opening and closing times set by the Committee. To help insure the safety of all children, parents will be notified as to when students will be admitted into the school building.
