The Board of Education has officially adopted a new school calendar for the 2026–2027 school year. Beginning in the fall of 2026, the district will transition from a traditional five-day school week to a four-day instructional week, with Fridays designated as non-school days.
This decision was made after careful consideration, research, and discussion regarding student achievement, staff collaboration, operational efficiency, and overall district sustainability. We encourage all families and staff members to review the detailed letter from the Superintendent outlining the reasons for this change, anticipated benefits, and important implementation information.
In addition, please take time to view the PowerPoint presentation that was shared with the Board of Education, which provides further background, data, and planning details. A finalized version of the 2026–2027 school calendar is also available for your review so you can begin planning accordingly.
We appreciate your continued partnership and support as we implement this new schedule and work to ensure a smooth and successful transition for all students and families.
