District Updates
Flexible Instructional Days

During the 2019-2020 School Year, North Allegheny School District will be utilizing Flexible Instruction Days (FIDs), which may be used in place of a school day that would be canceled because of inclement weather or another emergency situation. On a FID, students will complete learning activities and assignments provided by their teachers at home.
 
Implementing a FID will not require additional make-up days when school is canceled. These make-up days could shorten the spring break or extend the school year. The District can use up to five (5) FIDs per school year. FIDs are considered a school day and count toward the number of instructional days/hours required under Article 15 of the Public School Code and Chapter 11 of the State Board of Education regulations.
 
Since this is new for staff members, students and parents this year, the District is scheduling a FID for Monday, February 3, 2020. Additional information will be shared in mid-January. To learn more about FID, please visit the North Allegheny website via the button below.

The next meeting for the NA Special Education Parent Networking Group (PNG) will be held on Monday, January 13, 2020, at 1:00 p.m.
