Last spring, the District sent out a survey to gather input from our families on our school year calendar. The input we received will be used to help the district develop future school year calendars, beginning with the 2023-2024 calendar. In addition, the District also received input from staff on future school year calendars.
Both families and staff supported the replacement of our current 2-hour late-start structure for teacher training with full-day training. This means that starting with the 2023-2024 school year, the AASD will no longer have late-start Wednesdays.
The District will develop a calendar that meets all State requirements for instructional minutes and start date (after September 1st) and will consider the input received from families and staff. The calendar will be presented to the Board of Education for approval in November.
