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: Source is the revised calendar PDF (Board Approved 7/21/2026) linked from the district calendar page; its dates match the page's HTML grid. The legend separates 'Students Attend' (green) from Instructional Focus Days (blue), Administrative Days, DRIVE Conference PL Days and PL Days 4 & 5, so Sep 4, Oct 12 and Mar 29 (Instructional Focus Days) and Sep 21 (Parent Teacher Conferences, Administrative Day 3), Nov 3 (DRIVE Conference PL Day 3, Election Day), Jan 4 (Administrative Day 4) and Feb 15 (PL Day 5, Presidents' Day) are not student attendance days. The calendar's '180 days' and monthly running counts include the Instructional Focus Days (Jul 31, Aug 4-5, Sep 4, Oct 12, Mar 29, May 27); the grid has 173 regular student days, so no day total is given here. Dec 18 is a half day. May 25 is the last day of school for students; May 26 is an Administrative Day and May 27 a half Instructional Focus Day. Aug 4-5 are half-day student registration days, and schools are closed Aug 6 (Election Day) and Aug 7, before the Aug 10 first day.
