What’s the March holiday?

Anyone notice how HS kids have the conference days off too now, and don’t get out of school any earlier than ES kids in June?

Also looks like March 5 of this school year will be a student holiday. Surprise!

So glad next year will be our last in APS. My senior will have my permission to end early and/or skip as much of the last two weeks they can or want to.
Third week of June is just ridiculous.


That’s senior experience time. They aren’t in school anyway.

I really wish they would move polling places out of schools or just switch to all mail in ballots.

Seriously????
How many Arlingtonians actually go out and vote in March?
Any excuse to create another day off. Why do we even bother with a school calendar anymore? So concerned about chronic absenteeism....these calendars do nothing to encourage coming or to promote the priority people should place on education.


The schools are polling places. That’s why the close on polling days.

No one cares if you vote.

One is for 2024-25; the other is for 2025-26.


If you mean two calendars for 2023-24, the second one is the revised one and, I presume, the one that the SB will vote on. It has a shorter winter break and an earlier spring break.


No. There is a revised 23-24 calendar adding March 5 as a student holiday. The first link is proposed 24-25 and 25-26 calendar years.

There appears to be a revised 23-24 calendar at the end....last day is 6/12 for HS, 6/14 for others.


The revised 23-24 is adding the March 5 student holiday. The first link is to the proposed calendars for 24-25 and 25-26.
