Late Start Days
As a reminder, late start days will allow for additional time for our teachers to use data and collaboratively plan to continue to address the needs of all of our students. Families who need help with student supervision on late start days can participate in a program available at each building (K-12). The times for the late start supervision program are included below:
Elementary Schools (K-5)
Late Start Supervision Program: 7:40am-8:50am

Registration in the Late Start Supervision Program will be for the entire school year (all late start days), so that we can appropriately plan for staffing for the 22-23 year. To register for the Late Start Supervision Program, families can log into the parent portal and follow the registration prompts. Registration opened on Wednesday, May 4, and continues through June 30. Families who enroll after June 30 will work with their schools to make a determination about Late Start Supervision for their family.
