Inclement Weather Days and A/B Calendar

Fri, 03/16/2018 - 11:07am

Updated A/B Day Calendar

Due to the fact that we have missed 4 B days and had an additional shortened B day for unscheduled early dismissal as of February 7, 2018, and in preparation for all possible inclement weather make-up days, we have made some adjustments and updates to the A day/B day calendar for the remainder of this school year. 

  • Wednesday, April 4 will be changed from an A day to a B day.
  • Thursday, April 5 will be an A day.
  • Friday, April 6 will be a B day.
  • Friday, May 18 will be a B day.
  • June 15 will be a B day.

 A/B calendar for HCPSS.

Changes to HCPSS Calendar: April 4, 5, 6, May 18, and June 15

  • Schools now will be in session on April 4, 5, and 6 and for a half-day on May 18, and a half-day on June 15.
  • June 12 will now be a full day.
  • State law mandates that the school year must be completed by June 15. If additional inclement weather closings become necessary, HCPSS will petition the Maryland State Department of Education for a waiver of the additional days.

The fifth make-up day on June 15 falls on a Muslim holiday. Per Board policy, no activities or exams can be scheduled on this day. This will require all end-of-school assemblies, promotion ceremonies, celebrations and final exams to be held on June 14 but still require students to attend on the day after.
