As you may recall, due to Hurricane Sandy, schools were closed for seven days. The New York State Department of Education requires all school districts to provide for 180 days of instruction per year.
In order to make up the days of lost instruction, at the Sachem Central School District Board of Education meeting on Dec. 5, the board approved the opening of school during the February break, from Tuesday, Feb. 19 through Friday, Feb. 22 along with Monday April 1.
The revised calendar is now available.
