ROUND ROCK, Texas — Days on the Round Rock Independent School District (RRISD) calendar that were initially planned to be “early release” days have been changed by the RRISD Board of Trustees. The days will now be full instructional days, according to a notice on the RRISD website.
A total of eight days were changed. Now students will be attending classes all day on December 14, 15, 16, 17 and also on May 24, 25, 26, 27. These dates fall on the end of both school calendar semesters.
The reason for the change was due to in-person instructional minutes required as a result of the effects of COVID-19 on academic days.
