WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — The school year will last a little longer than originally planned in New Hanover County next spring.
Last night the school board voted to approve several changes to the 2018-2019 school calendars. The district says the changes were needed due to instruction time lost due to Hurricane Florence.
