NBOE Teacher Talk - March 6, 2023 (Calendar Special Edition)

Message From the Superintendent

Dear Teachers and Instructional Staff,

I am extremely excited to share the approval of next year’s calendars. Enclosed you will find the 2023-2024 school calendar.  

To review, the process for approval of the calendars has three steps. The first step is that a district team creates several options for consideration. Although the calendar is managerial prerogative, the second step is that bargaining agreements indicate that every Union is to review these calendars prior to final approval and dissemination. This assists the district greatly in a thorough review of all recommendations. The third and final step is approval by the Board at a Public Meeting. The start and end dates are all dependent on the number of days outlined in each contract and the total number of days students are required to attend school. This is why in certain years the last day of work or school occurs mid-week or on a Monday. 

I ask that all Principals and homeroom teachers distribute the school calendar to students and their families immediately. We are also including the Marking Period and Report Card Dates to help ready all systems for next school year.  

If you have any questions, please direct them to your Principal or Department Head.

-Mr. León
Superintendent
