Calendar

There will be a staggered start for different grades, which means the first day of school will be different as detailed below. Families will receive more information from their child’s school in August. 

First Day of School

• Grades 1-12: Tuesday, September 1
• Kindergarten: Tuesday, September 1 OR Wednesday, September 2 (assigned by school in August)
  • All kindergarten students will attend their second day of school as a whole class on Thursday, September 3
• 4K: Wednesday, September 2 OR Thursday, September 3 (assigned by school in August)
  • All 4K students will attend their second day of school as a whole class on Friday, September 4

This staggered start schedule allows our youngest students to experience a smoother transition into school. Four-year-old kindergarteners (4K) and kindergarteners are starting in a new building, with new teachers and new friends. This schedule helps reduce anxiety and build community by allowing teachers an opportunity to get to know students better, understand their personal strengths and needs, and teach routines and procedures in a small group setting. We are so excited to give our students a gentle, age-appropriate start to the school year!
