We lost five days due to a hurricane. Rather than adding 5 days to the end of the school year, they added 20 minutes to the end of every day or 5 mins to the end of every class.
They did that to us in 2011 - added 15 minutes to our work day to make up for several snow days. 12 years later we're still working those extra 15 fucking minutes!
