The Campbell County Schools Board made a significant decision at their March 18 meeting, amending the school calendar to accommodate changes due to a weather-related school day cancellation. The board approved a new graduation date for Temple County High School, now set for Friday, May 24, 2024, at 7:00 PM, to be held at the Tourist Arena.
The adjustments to the calendar were necessary following a school day cancellation on January 19. As part of the amendments, the last day of student attendance will now be Friday, May 24, with Memorial Day observed on May 27, meaning no school for students or staff. Staff will conclude their year on Tuesday, May 28.
This decision not only impacts students and staff but also aligns with the broader educational calendar adjustments for the CECSAC and DJJ programs. The board's swift action reflects their commitment to ensuring a smooth end to the academic year while maintaining important traditions like graduation.
