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: Early dismissals are 2 hours 45 minutes early, system-wide. Asterisked early dismissal days may become normal dismissal days if a delayed opening is needed. The calendar builds in 4 emergency closing days at the end of the year: the monthly student-day table adds up to 184 days through June 11 and the document states 180 after subtracting the 4 emergency days (E_DAYS accepted for this reason). If emergency days are not used, the last student day moves earlier: 1 unused = June 10, 2 = June 9, 3 = June 8, 4 = June 7, and that last day is a 2h45m early dismissal. Winter Break is Dec 24-31, followed by New Year's Day (Jan 1) closed; schools reopen Jan 4. Spring Break is printed Mar 25-30 (Th-T), which is Mar 25, 26, 29 and 30 on weekdays. Juneteenth (Jun 18) falls after the last day of school. The document shows no board-approval statement, so status is unknown. Separate special-school ceremonies (Carroll Springs, Gateway, Transition Connections Academy, High School BEST) are not included in the graduation range.
