❄️ What are snow days? Will we have to come to school on those days? ❄️ Snow days are inclement weather days*when school is canceled due to unsafe travel conditions. Just like in previous years, Vega ISD will monitor weather conditions and make decisions accordingly. We will not automatically have to make up snow days. The school calendar includes built-in instructional time, but if we exceed our allotted bad weather days, we may need to adjust the schedule later in the year. 🚨 Designated makeup days for snow/inclement weather are April 24, May 1, and May 8. If needed, these days will be used to make up for any canceled school days. 🖤💛 #4DayWeekFAQs #SnowDays
