Note: Adopted by the Board of Education on December 3, 2025 (PDF current as of June 16, 2026). Schools open Monday, August 24 for grades 1-5, 6 and 9; grades 7, 8 and 10-12 start Tuesday, August 25. Pre-K and kindergarten begin with parent conferences and staggered openings (all students attend from August 31; ECSE from August 26). November 23-24 are parent/teacher conference days and January 20 is a semester break, both with no school for students. Two-hour early dismissals (Project Unity Days) are Oct 13, Dec 8, Feb 9 and Mar 17. Three inclement weather make-up days, June 9-11, are built into the end of the year; unused make-up days are deducted from the June closing date, so the last day moves earlier if they are not needed. Seniors' last day is May 21. A May conference day with no school for ECSE, Pre-K and kindergarten is TBA.
