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: Approved by the Board February 4, 2025; updated and approved by the Board June 2, 2026. This version includes Tuesday, October 20 as a no-school day for students (Legislative Instructional Exemption day, the change the district announced in May 2026). Students are off Thursday Oct 15 through Tuesday Oct 20 (Fall Break, then two teacher contract days) and return Wednesday, October 21. The calendar's 176 total school days include 2 compensatory days for parent-teacher conferences (Sep 18 and Feb 12) when students do not attend, so students attend 174 days (the term counts 45 + 40 + 45 + 46 = 176 include Sep 18 in term 1 and Feb 12 in term 3; the March 12 compensatory day falls between terms). The grid marks August 12-14 as Kindergarten Testing and August 17-21 as Kindergarten Early Out. Planning Days (the last school day of most weeks, mostly Fridays) are early dismissal days: the calendar's legend says elementary only, while the district's online District Dates calendar lists most of them as early out for elementary and junior high. Graduation is TBA on the calendar; the district's separate 2027 High School Graduations list puts the main high school ceremonies on May 24-26, 2027.
