That’s what my high school teachers did back in the late 70s when we had a series of very bad winters. I don’t think I went a full week of school from Christmas break to mid-March my first three years of high school, and we didn’t have to make any of it up either, since it was an “act of God.” My senior year, they built three snow days into the calendar and told us that anything more than that would be tacked on to the end of the year … things eased up weather-wise and we ended up only taking three snow days. </p>
