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: Dates read from a color-coded grid with legend; the document does not name any holiday or break, so all labels come from the key (No School). The week of Mar 22-26 is treated as spring break, with Mar 19 and Mar 29 no-school days listed separately next to it. Jan 4 is also no school, right after winter break. Early outs (3hr) are Oct 23, Mar 12 and the last day May 26. P/T conferences are shown Oct 26-29 and Mar 15-18; the key does not say whether students have a normal day. Quarters end Oct 23, Dec 18, Mar 12 and May 26. Memorial Day (May 31) falls after the last day. The document does not state approval status or the number of instructional days and refers to the Academic Calendar for full details.
