Bulletin 741 stipulates the number of instructional minutes students must have each year to earn credits. Most schools have extra time built in for cases like this. If they are not going to meet their instructional time, according to bulletin 741, they will typically add minutes on to each day.

Only high school credits. It is about 3750 mins per 1/2 credits. It is about 12 weeks with 7 classes, 15 with 8 classes. K-8 has to be in for 63000 minutes. BESE can waive requirements with a declaration. Most districts have 4 days over the 63000 minutes.

Not sure what district will do, add a day, take out the 1/2 or pd days, or add minutes. It would take adding about 4 mins per day made up at this point.
