With No 'Snow Days' Left, Wilton Cuts February Break

The calendar adjustments — which were approved by the Board of Education during its meeting last Tuesday — means Feb. 20-22 will return to being school days, instead of vacation days.

Due to Hurricane Sandy and the subsequent loss of all six "snow days" for the year, the school administration in Wilton has decided to cut three days from the February break, as well as lengthening the school year by two days.

The calendar adjustments — which were approved by the Board of Education during its meeting last Tuesday (see attached memo) — means Feb. 20-22 will return to being regular school days, instead of vacation days.

Students will still get Feb. 18 (President's Day) and Feb. 19 as days off from school.
