We fetch this document again every day and compare it with the version we verified; if the district changes it, the dates here are read again.

Note: Read from a color-coded grid and key-dates list, which agree. The document says 'Revised: April 27, 2026' and 'subject to change due to employee union negotiations'; the file name says Board Approved, but the document itself has no approval wording, so status is unknown. Aug 13 (first day) and Aug 14 are minimum days for all students. Dec 17 and Jun 2-3 are minimum days for elementary and middle school only (high school has finals schedule). Jun 1 and Mar 25 are minimum days for all students. Elementary parent conference minimum days: Oct 5-9 and Feb 1-5. Middle school parent conference minimum days: Oct 19-23 and Mar 1-5. Sept 30 is marked '5th Wednesday (Teacher)'; the document does not say whether students have school. Thanksgiving break includes Nov 23-25 teacher non-contract/student-free days. Winter Recess is printed Dec 21-31 (includes Dec 24 and 31 local holidays and Dec 25 Christmas), and Jan 1 is New Year's Day (also labeled Winter Recess). Memorial Day (May 31) and Juneteenth (Jun 18) fall on or after the last day (Memorial Day is May 31, before the last day, but is listed as a holiday: see unconfirmed) . The 186 shown is total teacher workdays, not student instructional days.
