School board considers two calendar options for next year
Comal school board is considering two calendar proposals for next school year. The community is invited to provide input.
February 1, 2017
The Calendar Committee for the district has proposed two options for the 2017-18 school year, both having their pros and cons. These two options however change both elementary and secondary school hours.
- Elementary: 7:40 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
- Secondary: 8:45 a.m. – 4:10 p.m.
Option A: This option includes a winter break split up with two half weeks and a whole week but the break is only nine days. There would be a mid-winter break in February to make up for the rest of christmas break.
Option B: Christmas break is two full weeks and would follow the schedule of other nearby districts. The district points out that taking the whole week of January 1 might cause child care issues for families.
