HUNTINGTON â Cabell County Schools Superintendent Ryan Saxe said there are no plans to shorten the school year, even after a federal disaster declaration approved by President Joe Biden would have allowed the district to do so.
On May 13, Biden approved a disaster declaration for Cabell, Lincoln, Mason, Putnam and Wayne counties in West Virginia following a series of severe winter storms that caused widespread power and internet outages in the region.
Due to the federal declaration, a West Virginia Department of Education policy would have allowed those counties the option to not make up the instructional days that were missed because of the storm.
