The Oxford School District sent the following newsletter to remind parents, students and faculty that school is in fact in session on Good Friday this year and the reasons why.
[quote] School is in session Friday, April 18 for Oxford School District students, teachers and staff. Originally marked as a school holiday, it’s a regular school day for Oxford schools.
Here’s why school is in session:
1. Tuesday, February 11 was a snow day, or inclement weather day, for Oxford schools. Our Board of Trustees designated April 18, 2014, as the first school make-up day for inclement weather when they approved the 2013-2014 Academic Calendar.
2. All Mississippi school districts are *required* to have 180 student school days during an academic year. [/quote]
