(Cleveland Jewish News)
Due to the abundance of heavy snow and below-freezing temperatures this winter, many area public and private schools with Jewish children are either at or approaching their limit of “calamity days” – school days canceled because of hazardous weather.
Currently, schools or school districts in Ohio are allowed up to five calamity days per school year, based on the state requirement of at least 175 days of instruction in the year. When a school or district exceeds its limit of calamity days, those days must be made up somehow.
