Elizabethton board approves '2627' school-year calendar as presented
The Elizabethton Board of Education voted to approve the school-year calendar referenced in the meeting as the "2627 school year calendar." The motion carried by voice vote with no opposition.

Director Richard Van Huss explained the calendar development process and said, as presented, the only substantive change to the draft was moving a professional development day. "So I think we moved... professional development day was the only change that we made," Van Huss said, describing the committee process that includes at least two representatives from each school and that the district plans calendars two years in advance.

Van Huss walked the board through typical scheduling considerations cited in the discussion: alignment with election days in November, fall break, Thanksgiving and spring break timing, and Good Friday. The director also noted the district attempts to account for the high-school football schedule when scheduling breaks to ensure staffing for home games.

The board approved the calendar by voice vote and recorded no opposing votes. The meeting record uses the label "2627" for the calendar; the transcript does not explicitly expand this label to a conventional school-year notation (for example, "2026–27"), so this article reports the calendar exactly as it was presented at the meeting.

Ending: The calendar was approved and no further amendments were recorded at this meeting.
