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: Dates are read from the color-coded grid and agree with the No School Days list. The document does not say the calendar is board-approved, so status is unknown. Oct 2 and Mar 16 are Staff Development Days with no school for students. Jan 4 is a staff day for all grades (K-8 Staff Development, 9-12 Teacher Work Day), and students return Jan 5. Winter Break is listed as Dec 21-Jan 4; it is shown here as Dec 21-Jan 1, with Jan 4 under teacher_workdays. Full-day kindergarten starts Oct 19. Early release days apply to all schools, and June 1-3 are early release, with June 3 the last day. Memorial Day (May 31) and Juneteenth (June 18 marked as a holiday on the grid) fall after the last day of school. The document gives semester lengths for secondary schools only (84 days and 96 days) and no total.
