All public schools in the state of Pennsylvania are required to place a minimum of 180 student days on their school
calendars. School districts may opt to request that some days on the calendar be approved as Act 80 days by the
Pennsylvania Department of Education. Any days designated as Act 80 days count as student days even though students
are not present. As in previous years, we recommend the approval of the following professional development days as
Act 80 days for the 2016-17 school year.
