Three school districts, closed for a week after a tornadoes and a macroburst swept through the towns, reopen Wednesday. Brookfield, New Fairfield and Oxford schools will resume classes after days of no electricity, blocked roads and downed power lines. The big question is whether the school year will be extended because some school districts will not meet the mandated state requirement of 180 days of classes. The school districts have sought a waiver to that 180-day rule. The state Board of Education has indicated classes should continue through June 28 and even suggesting that students go to school on Memorial Day. Oxford has announced its last day of school is June 25; the last five days will be half days.
