The Maryland State Board of Education on Jan. 27 approved Queen Anne’s County Public Schools’ request for a waiver to use President’s Day [Monday, Feb. 16] as a day of instruction for students and staff. The Evening Enterprise reports QACPS built inclement weather contingency days into its approved calendar.
Additionally, three days are embedded at the end of the school year for weather-related makeup days.
As of Jan. 30, QACPS has experienced six inclement weather closures for this academic year: Dec. 5 and 15, 2025 and Jan. 27, 28, 29 and 30, 2026. In early spring, the Queen Anne’s County Board of Education will vote to determine the final day of school.
