Under current law, the board of Milwaukee Public Schools determines the school calendar and vacation periods for the regular day and summer schools each school year, but the board may not schedule more than 200 teaching days in the regular day school period in any school year. This bill eliminates the requirement that no more than 200 teaching days be scheduled in the regular day school period.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
Section 1. 119.18 (6) (intro.) and (b) of the statutes are consolidated, renumbered 119.18 (6) and amended to read:
119.18 (6) School calendar. The board may determine the school calendar and vacation periods for each school year for the regular day schools, summer schools, social centers, and playgrounds, except that: (b). The board may close any school or dismiss any class in the event of an emergency, fire or other casualty, quarantine, or epidemic.
Section 2. 119.18 (6) (a) of the statutes is repealed.
