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: Staggered start: Aug 17 is the first day for preschool, elementary, 6th and 9th grade; all students (7th, 8th, 10th-12th) start Aug 18. Aug 17 is used because most grades (1-6, 9) start then. The last day, May 26, 2027, is marked '(Tentative)' and the document does not say the calendar is board-approved. Thanksgiving break Nov 23-24 is no students/schools closed and Nov 25-27 is district closed. Winter break Dec 21-23 is no students and Dec 24-31 is district closed. Jan 1 is New Year's Day and school resumes Jan 6. PLC 2-Hour Late Start days (typically Fridays, e.g. Sept 4, Sept 18, Oct 2) are late starts, not early releases, so they are not listed in early_release. Oct 13 and Mar 17 are 'Parent/Teacher Conferences - PM only'; the document does not say whether students are dismissed early, so they are not listed. Elementary test days (Aug 27-28, May 6-7) are marked as other events and treated as normal school days. Memorial Day (May 31) falls after the last day. No Juneteenth closure is shown.
