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 label a last day of school. May 26, 2027 is 'End of Grading Cycle 4 (Early Release)', followed by Staff Work Days May 27-28, so it is taken as the last student day. Aug 4-17 are staff-only days before the first day. Oct 13 is Parent Teacher Conference and Feb 15 is Prof. Learning & Parent/Teacher Conf.; both are no school. The document does not name Feb 15 as Presidents' Day. Dec 18 is End of Grading Cycle 2 and Professional Learning (No School). Feb 26 and Apr 30 are marked 'Bad Weather Day (No School)' on the calendar (the legend lists bad weather days); the document does not say whether they become school days if weather days are needed. Summer Learning runs Jun 7-25.
