keep up to date with district changes to the school calendar.

The PCS District has approved a new school calendar for the next two years that will include a 1-week Spring break followed by a 1-week of Emergency Closure Makeup Days in which school is not scheduled but could be used to make up for lost days due to Public Safety Power Shutdowns, Bad Air Quality Conditions, Fires or other unforeseen events. The school year will now end in the second week of June. Learn how the new calendar will work and check the calendar for the next two years (this information was emailed out by the PCS district on 11/22. If you did not receive this communication, check this tutorial to learn how to receive future communications).

If you have any questions about the calendar, please contact Human Resources Executive Assistant, Rachelle Buschman. Also note that there will be a PCS District Board meeting on Dec. 10 at 6:00pm at the District Office. All meetings are public and the Board of Education welcomes public input during board meetings. Check this link to learn how to provide input.
