📚 Will students fall behind academically with fewer school days? 📚 Vega ISD will maintain the same high expectations for both teachers and students. The quality of instruction will remain a priority, and teachers will continue to provide the support students need to be successful. If a student falls behind, we are confident that our amazing teachers will make arrangements to meet with students on Fridays in small groups, offering the same personalized instruction that we provide in a 5-day week.

❄️ 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
