A Maine District Wants To Have Kids Do Schoolwork On Snow Days. But The State Won’t Let Them.

Due to restrictions from the Maine Department of Education, school administrators in the Camden-Rockport area likely will not be able to try replacing two snow days with “remote school days” until the end of the winter, if at all this school year. For months, officials in the combined School Administrative District 28 and Five Town Community School District have been planning a remote school day pilot project that would allow students and teachers to work from home when inclement weather keeps them out of school buildings. Administrators hoped to implement the remote school days for the first two storms to hit after Dec.
