As all of you may know by know, Arlington Public Schools has no intention of extending the second marking period. As it is evident that this is due to senior mid year transcripts having to be sent out by a certain period. Although this may be the case, counties in the area, for example Loudon County has a 3-4 day extension in their first semester due to the missed school day. Though APS can't control the weather and open school, the least they can do is extend the marking period. After missing 7 crucial school days, it would be a great service to the students.
