Added intersessions would include college prep courses, internships, field trips
This week, Manassas Park City Schools held round table meetings for its community members to address concerns about the district implementing a new balanced school calendar.
The new calendar would begin August 17 and close again on June 20. This new schedule includes week-long breaks in October and March, with the usual 10-day holiday vacation in December. Additionally, two-week long intersessions will be added to the calendar in October and April. Intersessions are optional for the students and would include everything from college prep courses to internships and field trips. They would be of no additional cost to the students.
