Here is our tentative 2023-2024 District Calendar. Please keep in mind that there may be a few changes as we still need to add some Professional Development Days for our teachers. We can't set that in place until our new Administrators are in place, however. We will keep you updated. The first day of school IS August 29th for sure. Have a great summer!!!
