The Seattle School Board on Wednesday decided to extend the school year by two days to make up for January?s inclement weather. The last day of school will be Friday, June 22.? Seattle students lost three days of school in January because of severe winter weather conditions. One day was made up on January 27. The School Board voted 0 to 7 against applying for a waiver from the state, which would have allowed Seattle Public Schools to not make up those two days. Not making up the days would have saved the district about $500,000. ?This is a statement on the value of classroom instruction,? said Board President Michael DeBell, after the unanimous vote.
