On Tuesday evening, we would like to discuss the 2023-2024 school calendar. There are two options that were presented to the D91 Teacher’s Association for feedback. After receiving feedback, they all preferred the first option which is attached for board consideration. This school calendar is very similar to the current school calendar and both the winter and spring break holidays align with the high school draft calendar being presented for consideration with their BOE. After the January discussion, we will plan to have the calendar hearing and have the Board officially approve the calendar in February, so we can release it to parents. |
