Limestone County school board members approved another foul-weather makeup day to make up for canceling classes Feb. 10 due to snow.

During their regular monthly meeting Tuesday, board members set Wednesday, April 13, as the makeup day.

Lost days must be made up because state law requires students to attend 180 days of school each year.

At the beginning of the school year, school officials had set March 11 as a makeup day in case of bad weather. They used that day and then had to add five more to make up for a Jan. 10 snowstorm that closed schools for a week.

Board President Earl Glaze said he hoped Feb. 10 was the last bad weather day for the school year.

In other action Monday, board members agreed to hire one new employee and approved several substitute teachers. Here is a synopsis of personnel action:
