The new schedules for all schools are posted on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vbschools.com\/schools\/hours_mod.asp\">vbschools.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDetermining a makeup schedule that is both accommodating for families and instructionally valuable to students and staff is a challenge logistically. Although no plan will receive consensus from the entire community, I believe this plan will be the most acceptable,\u201d said Dr. Aaron Spence, superintendent of VBCPS.<\/p>\n<p>As previously reported, VBCPS will also use April 3 as a makeup day for the instructional time lost during inclement weather experienced Feb. 17-20.\u00a0 Students will not be required to make up the other three days of closure that occurred during that time frame.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the schedule changes, the SOL testing window has been moved back to allow for additional instructional days prior to SOL testing.
