instruction built into their calendars. Berks County schools have
always included " weather makeup " or " snow makeup " days into their
calendars as well, implying that there still may be traditional " snow
days, " where students would not have to " report " to school, even
electronically, on a day of inclement weather and that they would
make up the day later in the year.

However, schools have also been encouraged to apply to the PA
Department of Education for five Flexible Instruction Days or " flex
days " per year, " to be used as an alternate approach to delivering
instruction if a circumstance arises that prevents instruction in
a customary manner. " In other words, if there's an emergency
of any kind, including a weather-related one such as snow, the
superintendent can designate that day as a " flex day, " which
would mean students stay home and " report " to school and
their teachers electronically. Such a day would count as an
official school day, and if students don't check in with their
teachers, or complete their assignments, they would be
marked absent.
It is possible that a school could use a " flex day " every time
that there is inclement weather, thereby eliminating the
cherished " snow day " for a given school year, however,
time will tell. Dr. Kimberly Minor, Superintendent of
Exeter Township School District, stated at a recent board
meeting, " We don't have the intention of never having
a snow day here at Exeter again, although you could
theoretically do that. "
Despite the many changes that education is facing during
these unprecedented times, some traditions like the
cherished " snow day " are going to stay...at least for some
schools...and for the moment.
