SCASD Schedule: The State College School Board voted last night to approve the calendar for the 2010-11 academic year, which includes two days of spring break that run at the same time as Penn State’s break.
Students will have no class on the Monday and Tuesday of that week, which is March 7-11, the Centre Daily Times reported.
