Warrenton-Hammond board approves 2026–27 operations calendar with earlier start and some early‑release days
Summary
Board approved the 2026–27 operations calendar, moving the start date to before Labor Day and scheduling certain conference/early‑release days; board members discussed fairness of Thursday early releases and transportation constraints.
The Warrenton-Hammond SD 30 board approved the district’s 2026–27 operations calendar after a brief discussion about the timing of early‑release days and teacher in‑service scheduling.
Superintendent Tripp Goodell said the calendar was produced collaboratively by staff and highlighted that the district will start school earlier than some neighboring districts, with Labor Day falling on Sept. 7. Board members questioned why some professional development days were set on Thursdays with early student release rather than on Fridays; staff explained transportation and scheduling considerations.
The board voted unanimously to adopt the calendar. Goodell said staff will continue conversations about multi‑year calendar cycles and teacher collaboration opportunities ahead of future cycles.
