School board changes calendar for ‘weather days’

MADISON – Madison Board of Education has adjusted the school calendar for three days when schools were closed due to severe winter weather in January.

The district does not need to make up two days, Jan. 16-17, because Gov. Kay Ivey declared a weather emergency for the state.

For closing on Jan. 12, Madison City Schools had ‘weather days’ included in the calendar. The board voted to use March 30 as that makeup day.

April 27 will continue as a weather day in the 2017-2018 school calendar. If the district does not need to close again due to weather, schools will be dismissed on April 27.
