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 has no text list and doesn't name the breaks. Oct 12-16 is a purple 'School Holiday' week with no name, so it is listed in days_off. Feb 15 (Presidents Day) and Mar 26 are red 'Bad Weather Days'; the document doesn't say whether they are off unless needed, so they are listed as make-up days only, so confirm with the district before planning travel. Early release on Dec 18 and May 21 (last day). Quarters end Oct 9, Dec 18 and Mar 11; the last quarter ends May 21. Blue professional days in August (Aug 3-12) are before students start. Days May 24-26 and June 1 are after the last day. The document does not say whether the calendar is board-approved.
