What happened

On May 12, 2026 the board picked Calendar B for 2026-27. It starts Aug. 3, 2026 and ends May 27, 2027. Earlier surveys raised worries about year-round school and early start dates.

Why it matters to families

The calendar sets when families plan vacations, child care and summer jobs.

The evidence

Signed minutes of the May 12, 2026 meeting say survey results favored Calendar B and give its start and end dates. Minutes from April 21, 2026 summarize the survey concerns.
