2015-16 school calendar approved

The Board of School Committee approved the 2015-16 school year calendar on April 13. It is available for download.

A few notes to mention:

• A day off will be added in January when the date of the NH Presidential Primary is determined.
• Snow days will have to be made up in June.
• Like this year, Presidents' Day will be a school day.
   
• The official first day of school for pre-k and kindergarten is on September 8. Among the benefits, schools will be able to offer a kindergarten orientation prior to the first day, process new registrations, and take more time to thoughtfully create classroom assignments. Overall, our goal is to provide a smoother transition for our youngest students arriving at school for the first time. More information will become available during the summer to tell families what they need to know about their school's plan.
