There will be school for all grades in Lawrence Public Schools on Monday, April 18.
Some parents have expressed confusion because the district’s initial calendar for the 2021-22 school year shows it as a day off. It was set as a make-up day if there were too many inclement weather days during the winter.
The district confirmed in a post on its Facebook page Sunday that there is indeed school on Monday.
Lawrence schools had four snow days in February and March and a delayed start for hazardous road conditions.
Under state law, all districts must have students in school for at least 1,116 hours per school year.
There is a frost advisory in effect for early Monday morning, according to the National Weather Service in Topeka. No further snow was shown in the forecast for the week, but it would not be unheard of — last year, it snowed here on April 20.
