9.3. Discuss and consider approval of the changes to the 2026-2027 School District Calendar.
Rationale:
The school district calendar reflects 173 student days, 182 teacher contract days. In order to accommodate inclement weather days and to uphold teacher's contracts at 185 days, I recommend we add three school days to the 2026-2027 school district calendar. The student dismissal day for summer will be May 19th, 2027. This does not impact the Seniors' last day of school.
