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: This is the calendar posted on the district's School Calendars page; the document does not print a board approval date. September 21 is a Professional Development Day (no school for students) and will be used as a make-up day for inclement weather if needed. October 12, January 4 and March 22 are Teacher Duty Day/Student Holiday. Students are dismissed one hour early every Wednesday, except in the FTE weeks of October 7 and February 3; in the weeks of November 20, December 18 and March 12 the early release moves to that Friday. Only those three Fridays and the last day of school (Wednesday May 26, also a one-hour early release) are listed as early release days here; the calendar lists every weekly early release date. Student days: the calendar's four grading periods have 43, 43, 47 and 47 days (180).
