Early calendar start��In Ingham County, eight of the twelve districts start school at least one week earlier than us. We are currently working towards developing a school calendar that is similar in nature to this year, but has us starting the Monday before Labor Day. In this calendar, we would start on Monday August 28th but would be off the Friday and Monday of Labor Day Weekend. We would conclude school for next year tentatively on June 12, 2018 vs. June 16, 2017 for this current school year.

Current 4th and 5th grade students currently start school on the first (early) run. Next year these same students will be on the second (late) run (PK-6)
