The Hancock County School Board approved the calendar for the coming school year at Monday’s meeting. While the Board had posted the Calendar online, no comments on any desired changes had been received.
Looking to the remainder of this school year, Superintendent Dan Enich said the five snow days, school delays, and cancellations due to a terrorist threat and water problems at Weirton Elementary all must be resolved. The County has applied for waivers so that the school year doesn’t need to be extended.
