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 say the calendar is board-approved, so status is unknown (the file name says 'REVISED'). The week of Nov 23-27 is called 'Fall Break' and includes Thanksgiving Day (Nov 26), so it is listed as the Thanksgiving break. Oct 9 and Mar 8 are Parent Teacher Conference days, Nov 3 is a virtual clerical day for teachers, Jan 21-22 is Teacher PD / Parent Teacher Conference for ES & MS and High School Orientation, and Mar 9 is a Professional Learning Day. Students have no school on all of these days. Juneteenth (June 19, 2027) falls on a Saturday and is not shown. Total days: 172.
