Looking ahead:

  • Click here to review the 2023-2024 official school calendar. Inside are important dates including next year’s first day of school. As an important note: you will notice “quarters” on the calendar for next year instead of “modules.” This is due to a daily schedule change that will take effect next year. The Senior Leadership Team has been reviewing our current daily schedule since last fall and has made changes that will be communicated soon. One such change is shifting from modules to quarters and semesters. The new daily schedule will be available to view soon.
