II. Approval of Revised 2013-14 School Calendar
Rationale

House Bill 211 allows for Friday, June 6, to be the last student day if school districts reach a minimum of 1062 student instructional hours. 

The Kentucky Department of Education has confirmed that the District will have accrued 1066 hours as of June 6, 2014. 

If there are no additional days missed due to inclement weather, we will have made up 7 of the 11 instructional days missed prior to the last student day.
