Polk County Schools will cut its days in the classroom by 20
next school year. The new calendar, which was approved by
the Polk School District Board of Education this week will go to
a 160 day school year starting in August. Officials estimate
that the new schedule will save more than $200,000 in the budget.
The new school day will lengthen instruction time by one hour
each day.
High schoolers will also have an eighty period added to their
A/B schedule.
