Do you have to make up school in the summer if the snow days were a state of emergency?

I live in Massachusetts and we recently had an ice storm that resulted in power outtages that lasted for several days. My school was an emergency shelter and school was cancelled for 8 days (we haven't been in school since December 11). All of the days we missed were considered a state of emergency, so will we have to make up all these days in the summer? Thanks in advance. :)Do you have to make up school in the summer if the snow days were a state of emergency?
You will either have to make them up in the summer, or they will give you some extra homework to catch up on the work that you missed during this time to catch up. Another option, since it effected probably your entire area, is that they might have you do a couple of weeks at the end of school into the summer, or they might have you come back a couple of weeks earlier from summer break to catch up on the missed work.Do you have to make up school in the summer if the snow days were a state of emergency?
No. You will have to make them up on a teacher workday, or a school day you were supposed to have off. Some schools even make you go on a saturday, but they won't take away your summer. The last day of school stays the same.
Yes, but only after a certain amount. There's already an allotted amount of time that you can have off (at my school it was 10 days) %26amp; then once it goes past that amount you have to make it up in the summer no matter what. Most of the time the school year (here in MD) is cut short because we don't use all of our snowdays. You most likely had more allotted because it snows there more often.
yes most likely. in wisconsin we had state of emergiencies in like 2002 2hen it was so cold the air temps reached the high of -30, and that was a high not factoring in wind chill. we missed school for 5 days and under state law were required to make them up in order to reach the law, 180 days of school. 5 days less of summer, cucked! thats when we adpopted a popular system of starting and ending school 5 minutes later, that way if we missed 3 days of school they were covered.
