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: Read from a color-coded grid and legend. 08/18/2026 is the first day of the instructional term but a professional learning day; first student instruction is 08/19/2026. Last day of the instructional term is 06/03/2027; 06/04 and later are non-student days. Nov 2 is a Teacher-Pupil-Parent Conference day and is counted as non-instructional, so it is treated as no school for students. The March 29-April 2 week is not called Spring Break on the document, only marked as Out-of-Calendar Days, so it is listed in days_off. Feb 12 and Feb 15 are also Out-of-Calendar Days (no label naming Presidents' Day). Faculty Senate/Professional Learning days (08/18, 10/12, 12/18, 02/16, 04/05) are counted as instructional days on the document, and it does not say whether students have shortened days. The board approval and superintendent signature are blank, so status is unknown.
