BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) -- Buffalo Public Schools announced that they are implementing four half days next week due to the National Weather Service's forecast of excessive heat in the Buffalo area, Jeffrey Hammond, the school's director of public relations and information, said in a statement.
The half days will be implemented for students in pre-K through eighth grade on June 17, 18, 20 and 21.
Lunch will be served to all students before their dismissal. Students will be released three and a half hours earlier — at 10:55 a.
