D97 to Add 2 Days to School Year After Cancellations

From Oak Park Elementary School District 97:

State law requires that Illinois public schools be in session a minimum of 176 days. After using two emergency days this week, we will need to add days to the end of the school year to meet this requirement. Therefore, the last day of school will now be on Friday, June 6 (assuming that no additional emergency days are used this year). However, the addition of these days will not impact the graduation date or activities for our eighth grade students.
