Stay Learning: Attendance Before and After Break  

Stay Learning: Attendance Before and After Break  

Winter break is coming up, and we want to thank you for all you do to help your children show up, learn, and feel part of our school community. 

This time of year often includes family gatherings and travel, sometimes far from home. We honor that. We also ask that travel plans follow the school calendar when possible, so your child doesn't miss valuable learning time. 

Important Dates 

  • The last day of school before the break is Friday, December 19. It is an early release for grades K-12. 
  • There is no school December 22, 2025, through January 2, 2026.  
  • Classes resume on Monday, January 5, 2026. 

Every school day matters. When students attend regularly, they: 

  • Stay connected with friends and teachers 
  • Keep up with classwork 

Your partnership helps students come back ready to learn. If your family needs support, please reach out. We are here to help.
