North Carolina law (G.S. 115C-84.2) requires that schools begin no earlier than the Monday closest to August 26 and close no later than the Friday closest to June 11. The State Board of Education may waive this requirement for any LEA that has missed eight (8) full days a year during any four (4) of the last ten (10) years due to severe weather conditions, energy shortages, power failures, or other emergency situations. If an LEA is approved for a weather-related waiver, the opening date may be no earlier than the Monday closest to August 19. Transylvania County Schools qualifies for a weather-related calendar waiver for the 2022-2023 school year (see attached).
A motion is in order to approve the calendar waiver request for the 2022-2023 school year.
