Jersey Day - Friday, February 5
Wednesday "Late Start" Logistics
On Wednesdays, the school day starts at 11:55a.m., with doors opening at 11:40a.m. Students using the YMCA SAC Program or Tier 1 Childcare arrive earlier.
The last curbside pick up will take place on Wednesday, February 3, between the hours of 8:00a.m. - 4:30p.m. For those needing curbside, please avoid school starting and dismissal times of 11:40a.m.-12:00p.m. and 3:30-3:55p.m. Following February 3, DLA Families will be invited to access the materials in the vestibule area.
Student & Teacher Connection Days
- Elementary parent-teacher conferences (originally scheduled for Wednesday evening, Feb. 10 and Thursday, Feb. 11) have been replaced with student-teacher connection days. These are similar to summer assessments involving teachers meeting one-on-one with students. Student-teacher connection days will be during the day Wednesday and Thursday, so there will be no school for K-5 Wednesday and Thursday, Feb 10-11.
- Friday, Feb. 12 remains the same, with no school for students in grades K-8.
- There is no Tier 1 Childcare on February 10-12, however, the YMCA is offering fee-based, full day care at three district sites.
