The Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools Board of Education canceled a special called meeting on Tuesday that was originally called to discuss adding extra minutes to the school day to accommodate recent and possible future weather delays and closures.

Instead, a survey was sent to district families and staff to gather public opinion about ways to make up missed days due to weather.

Following the survey, discussion about adding extra minutes to the school day will now take place at the board’s regularly scheduled meeting on Jan. 28 at 6:30 p.m. in the auditorium of the Education Building at 4801 Bethania Station Road in Winston-Salem.
