					<description><![CDATA[The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has announced primary and backup dates for closing the James River Bridge (JRB) related to cable replacement on the structure.   During these dates, traffic heading to or from the peninsula will be rerouted to the Monitor Merrimac Bridge Tunnel (MMBT), or the Jamestown-Scotland Ferry. VDOT is anticipating extreme congestion throughout Hampton Roads during the closures. Many of our employees travel over the JRB or MMBT to work in IWCS and we anticipate significant disruption to employee arrival times on these days. 

In response to these concerns, IWCS is proposing the following changes to the school calendar for January and February 2024]]></description>

Next Steps: You MUST let your child's teacher know in advance that you would like for your child to participate in makeup and retake day. If you do not, your child will not be photographed. We will attempt to photograph all children who were absent, but it is best to let your child's teacher know in advance to help expedite the process.

Ordering: Makeup and Retake day pictures will be available for online ordering about two weeks or so after picture day. More information will follow when the photos are ready.]]></description>
