First day of school
Elementary schools:
- Aug. 21, is the first day for all students in grades pre-K – 5.
- All pre-K and kindergarten students will attend school during the first week; however, there will be a staggered schedule for students.
○ Some students will attend Aug. 21-22; others will attend Aug. 23-24. (Schools will assign students to specific days.) This will allow students to become more familiar with their new surroundings in a smaller classroom setting.
○ All pre-K and kindergarten students will report to school daily starting Aug. 25.
Middle and high schools:
- Aug. 21 is the first day for sixth- and ninth-grade students only.
○ This will allow for a successful transition of students moving from one school level to another, and will allow staff members to begin to build relationships and share expectations. - All other middle and high school students will start school Aug. 22.
