First of all, I want to encourage everyone to complete the Calendar Survey as sent out to parents and made available to the public. Go to Calendar Survey and provide valuable input on the 2014-2015 Calendar selection.
The survey closes at midnight April 10, 2014.
With that in mind, several people have asked: What are the "Culminating Events" on the Calendar choices; specifically, February 20 and 27. (Its a good question and I promised Penny Kipp I would send out an explanation on Facebook and my blog). Therefore, here it is: these are days that district and regional basketball are taking place. These events are scheduled by the State Activities Association. Our school not only sends girls and boys basketball teams, but pep band members in grades 6-12 as well as cheerleaders. A significant number of children attend these activities and are not at school. On calendars 1, 3, and 4 there is no school on these days.
If there are any other question you are having with the calendar survey, please don't hesitate to give us a call at the district office. We look forward to your calendar responses.
