In response to a survey in early 2023, our district added 10 minutes to the end of each school day, which allowed us to incorporate a four-day Fall Break into our school year calendar! The district was also able to extend Winter Break.
During Fall Break, there will be NO SCHOOL for students October 27-30. We'll resume classes on Tuesday, October 31! #RepMOProud

Did you know? When a student misses school two days per month, they will miss 20 days of school per year, including at least 30 hours of math and 60 hours of reading/writing instruction. In addition, students who miss two days of school per month will miss more than one year of school by the time they graduate. Those numbers are doubled for students who miss four days per month.
