We’ve created a school-year Vacation Planner that includes all the school holidays, breaks, and important dates.  Use this tool to plan family vacations, schedule doctor's appointments, and coordinate other commitments during times that help your child miss as little classroom instruction as possible. 

Every day in school matters, and being present helps students stay on track for success. We hope this helps balance life’s moments while maximizing learning time.
