GALESBURG, Ill. (AP) — West-central Illinois schools have piled up an impressive collection of snow days this winter. At least some, though, say they don’t expect to extend the school year to make up for lost time.
Students in the United School District have been out eight days.
The district serves rural Monmouth, Yorkwood and Alexis, all about 50 miles northwest of Peoria.
District bookkeeper Kris Repp can’t recall a year in the past two decades with that many snow days.
The district builds five snow days into its schedule. It plans to seek a state waiver to cover two days and go to school on an optional holiday to cover the last one.
Abingdon, Bushnell-Prairie City and Spoon River Valley school districts also have had more than five snow days off.
