Guilford County Board of Education
Regular Meeting
September 13, 2007

To:	Members, Board of Education
From:	Terry B. Grier, Ed.D.
Date:	September 7, 2007
RE:	Revised 2007-08 Calendars

It has come to our attention that three 2007-08 calendars contain miscalculations with optional teacher workdays that do not meet the 215 day requirement for 10-month employees. Those calendars include:

Hampton
Oak Hill
The Middle Colleges

This error occurred as a result of an extra holiday added to this year’s calendar as required by state law – if Christmas falls on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, an extra holiday is to be added to the calendar. The extra paid holiday should be offset by a reduction in optional teacher workdays to maintain the contracted 215 day requirement.

RECOMMENDATION: Administration recommends that the board approve these modified 2007-08 calendars for Hampton, Oak Hill and The Middle Colleges.

Attachment #1 - Revised Hampton Calendar
Attachment #2 - Revised Oak Hill Calendar
Attachment #3 - Revised Middle College Calendar
