length is 170 student contact days. School begins on Aug 19 and ends on
May 24. It has (8) Winter Break Days; (2) Spring/Easter Break Days. It
has (144) Full Days; (23) Part Days; and (3) Half Days. There are (185)
Professional/Staff Days and (7) PIR Days and (8) Professional

group planning. This Calendar requires structured recesses for the
elementary to extend learning time while taking advantage of low
attendance numbers on Friday afternoons by scheduling one hour early
release for students to attend activities and weekend events without
absence. The most significant characteristic of this calendar is that it
utilizes part days and PDW on Fridays to maximize student time in class
since many students are gone on activities either part of the day or
the entire day.
