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: The document does not say the calendar is board-approved. Oct 30, 2026 ('Release Day P/T Conf') is marked with a circled X (no students in attendance), so it is a no-school day for students; parent-teacher conferences are also held Oct 28-29 with students in attendance. Fall Break is Fri Oct 16 and Mon Oct 19 (district closed). The last student day is May 25; May 26 is a Teacher Work/Make-up day and May 27-28 are Reserve Make Up Days, all after the last day and used only if needed. The quarter counts printed on the calendar (47 + 40 + 47 + 46 = 180) do not match the grid, which gives 176 student days (Q1 counts Labor Day and the Sep 21 staff day, Q3 and Q4 count the Feb 8 and Apr 5 staff days), so no day total is given here. Transition Day for grades K, 6 and 9 and the first day of PreK are listed as TBD. Presidents' Day (Feb 15) is a school day. Juneteenth falls after the last day.
