The board approved the district's draft 2026-2027 school calendar at the April 1 meeting, accepting a calendar that sets Sept. 8 as the first day of school and June 10 as the last instructional day, with June 11 reserved for semester grading. The calendar includes scheduled teacher work days, district professional development days, grading days and traditional holiday observances.
Packet materials outline specific scheduling details including teacher work days (Aug. 12 or Sept. 11 options), four district professional development days (including Feb. 15 and Mar. 26), three grading/collaboration days and designated early-release or half days for grading.
