Greetings,

At last night's meeting, the Board of Education approved the year-end dates found below including setting Graduation for May 22nd. If by chance the District were to encounter more inclement weather this school year and an Emergency Day would need to be utilized, it would push the last day of student attendance and the final teacher's institute day back; however, it would not impact the other dates below. This information is also on the main page of our website. We certainly look forward to celebrating the Class of 2025 in May! Go Rebels!

Sincerely,

Dr. Matt Gordon, Superintendent
