Twice each month, normally on the first and third Wednesday (except for January and June which is once a month) students will begin school at 9:30 a.m.  Buses will run accordingly.  Staff will attend a monthly staff meeting on one Wednesday and a Professional Learning Committee Team meeting on the other Wednesday.

** This calendar will continue to build as dates are established.  Date changes will be noted in the Dates To Remember section of the monthly "Blues Notes" mailed home and also published on this website.
