Back to School Events
The 2025-2026 school year calendar has been revised due to recent notification that one of our schools is being used as a polling place while students were scheduled to be in session. This means there is no school for all students on the March 17th which moves the last day of the school year to Friday, May 29th. The calendar can be found on our website at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NBgnJ0fUD8mpufZAPiBRno2WfA3BiGsj/view .
