It's hard to say, because we're waiting to find out about Dr. McKnight's recommended option. That will be presented to the board on Tuesday. Based on what was talked about at the last policy management committee meeting, I am guessing her recommended option will have the first day of school as either August 23rd or 28th (this is the biggest question), will have normal-size Thanksgiving, winter, and spring breaks, may also have a February extra long weekend around Presidents Day, and will have the last day of school as June 14th.

Please add a long February break!

Do you think Dr McKnight will issue the memo before 12/5?

Does that mean the BOE will approve something tomorrow?

It's on the agenda as an Item of Discussion/Action, which means a vote is expected.

Presumably. That is what's supposed to be presented this afternoon.

Just asking because usually the memo with the recommendation is posted to the meeting agenda...

The recommendation is not yet posted to the agenda.
