Superintendent: district will add two school days; graduation set for May 31
Summary
Superintendent announced the district will extend this school year by two days; K–11 students' new last day is Friday, June 5. He also invited the public to Ross High School graduation May 31 and highlighted a district fine‑arts festival.
The superintendent told the board the district will extend the school calendar by two days to recover missed instructional time. "We will be extending our school calendar year by 2 days this year," he said, and set the new last day for kindergarten through grade 11 as Friday, June 5. He noted graduates and preschool calendars differ and asked families with questions to contact his office.
The superintendent also invited the public to Ross High School graduation on Sunday, May 31 at 2 p.m. at Don Paul Stadium and promoted a large fine‑arts festival at the high school (5:30–8:30 p.m.) that showcases music and art across grade levels.
Board members and committee chairs praised the district's student events (prom, mental health days) and community engagement. The meeting included a health-and-wellness committee report about the My Health Works app and planned screenings; the superintendent asked stakeholders to reach out with questions about the calendar change.
No formal vote was required to announce the calendar change at the meeting; the board approved a related memo later in the agenda as part of consent items.
