Parents' Group Not Giving in on Year-Round School Debate
WakeCares says it is hearing that groups are organizing to encourage parents not to consent to voluntary year-round enrollment.
Posted — UpdatedThe moves comes the same day Wake County Superior Court Judge Howard Manning told attorneys for both sides during a conference call that the district is complying with his order to make year-round schools voluntary.
That ruling affects more than 30,000 students who would have attended any type of year-round school next year.
WakeCares said the school board found a loophole in Manning's ruling and that the district should delay the conversions until it knows how many parents opt for year-round schools. They also think parents should know what traditional-calendar assignment they might get before making a decision.
