A Coalition Group Fights to Keep the Regular School Year Calendar

A coalition has been formed in hopes of getting the Boise School District to keep its regular school year schedule. There have been talks about changing the school calendar in the fall, which would make it so that students get of school for summer vacation earlier, which also means they would go back earlier too.

The School District sent a survey out to parents and staff asking if they would support the change. 85 percent favored the decision, but a group called "Save Idaho Summers Coalition" is fighting it.
