PLYMOUTH, Mass. (WBZ NewsRadio) — Students and staff from several school districts returned to school Monday after an elongated February break due this year’s blizzard.
“I liked snow days, but now I don’t want any more snow days,” one student heading back to Plymouth North High School told WBZ NewsRadio.
Some parents were also on the same page.
“They need to learn, they need a full week of school,” Nancy, who is a parent of a student at the high school, said.
The snow days not only pushed back the start of summer vacation but also learning schedules.
“So, it gets annoying because then you don’t get to really know when [will the upcoming] tests [be],” another student said.
The blizzard caused major power outages to communities on the South Shore and Cape Cod, including schools.
Eversource crews worked around the clock last week and got most of the power back on by Friday, Feb. 27.
