Note: Grades 1-12 start Aug 25; kindergarten is half-day Aug 25-27 and first full day is Aug 28. June 15 is a tentative closing day (early dismissal). The calendar is 185 days including 5 emergency closing days. If unused, they are deducted in June (earliest closing June 8). Days lost to emergency closings are added after June 15. After June 30, days may be deducted from the end of April Recess. The 185 count appears to include teacher PD days. Nov 4-6 (elementary), Nov 12-13 (high school) and Nov 18-20 (middle school) are conference early dismissals for that level only. Spring Conferences Mar 1-5 are by invitation and school is in session. Dec 23 is an early dismissal; the list text says Holiday Recess is 23-31, but the grid shows Dec 23 as early dismissal and no school Dec 24-Jan 1. Offices closed May 28 and 31 per the list; May 28 is Teacher PD with schools closed. Graduation is no later than June 15 (no exact date). No Juneteenth closing (June 19, 2027 is a Saturday).
