180 Days Calendar - COVID-19 Instructional Time Waiver Form

School districts seeking a waiver from the minimum instructional hour requirement pursuant to Commissioner's Regulation §175.5(n)(2) must complete two questions.

Waiver applications will be for the 2021-22 school years only. Waiver approval is contingent on the following conditions:

•Does the Superintendent request a waiver from the minimal instructional hour requirement pursuant to Commissioner's Regulations §175.5 for the 2021-22 school years?

•Please describe the challenge that prevented the school district from complying with the minimum instructional hour requirement for the 2021-22 school year.

If your district was previously approved for the 2021-22 school year instructional hour waiver in 2019-20 or 2021-22 SAMS you do NOT need to apply again, please select N/A on the waiver form.  Only those districts who do not have an approved waiver for the 2021-22 school year on file should choose Yes or No, whether they choose to apply for the 2021-22 school year waiver in 2022-23 SAMS.
