According to fair officials the Fair is reaching out to the school district for consideration of moving the school calendar back one week. This could be accomplished, however it would mean that there would be no one week break in between the first and second quarters. It sounds simple, but for those that have been around awhile, you will remember there is nothing simple about the school calendar in Amador County. Through a series of negotiations conducted in the late 90’s the calendar, more specifically, the perimeters under which the calendar is developed, are set as part of the Amador County Teachers Association contract. The contract reads that “should the district develop a calendar outside of the perimeters established contractually any change will be negotiated with the teachers association.” Those perimeters include a one week break at the end of the first quarter and that the first semester will end before the Christmas break. According to Amador County teachers Association officials a calendar that it outside of the current perimeters has not been brought to their attention at this point. Officials at the Amador county Fair say that the change at this point is a proposal but that “nothing is a done deal yet.”
