But this year, before the ballots are even cast â much less counted â Donald Trump is signaling that he is ready to challenge the presidential election results. I'm telling you, Nov. 8, we'd better be careful, because that election is going to be rigged, Trump told Fox News earlier this week.
Most districts dip below the required 176 days. America's traditional 180-day school year is more myth than reality in Illinois, as a jumble of state laws, rules and waivers allow districts to chip away instruction time, shorten school hours and cut the number of days students come to school.
The state sets the number of minutes in the school day and the school has to work within those boundaries. Each class is 40-45 minutes long and if another 5 minutes was added to each passing period out of 6 periods that would be an additional 30 minutes a day added to the school day. This means each day you would have to be in school 30 minutes more. The time adds up to 600 minutes a month.
