Brunswick County releases school make-up schedule

BRUNSWICK COUNTY, NC (WWAY) – Brunswick County schools have announced when students will make-up the days missed during Hurricane Matthew.

In a news release, Brunswick County says the proposed make-up schedule avoids taking away from major holidays including Thanksgiving, Christmas and Spring Break.  Saturdays are not the most viable make-up alternative and can result in overtime charges to the district for employees such as teacher assistants, clerical, bus drivers, child nutrition, custodial, etc.  Plus, Saturdays often result in low attendance by students and staff.

October 28 and March 31 will no longer be early release days. They are now full school days for students.

January 23 was a teacher workday, it will now become a school day. The teacher workday has been moved to June 15.

February 24 was annual leave day, it will now become a school day.

February 27 was a teacher workday, it will now become a school day. The teacher workday has been moved to June 16.

The Early College High School calendar also has make-up days.

October 17-18 were teacher workdays, they are now school days. The teacher workdays have been moved to May 26 and May 29.

December 19-20 were teacher workdays, they are now school days. The workday has been moved to May 30.
