Vote on school year calendar leaves Garden City board puzzled
USD 457 teachers voted 342 to 185 to keep the traditional calendar for 2016-17, delaying an alternative plan that would shorten Fridays by two hours. Board member Gloria Hopkins voiced frustration over stalled progress after years of discussion on professional development time and Friday early releases. The board will consider the issue again on April 18 after district officials explain negotiated calendar requirements.
